Pisco Punch

Gold Rush in a glass

Glass Coupe
Method Shaken
Garnish pineapple wedge

A legendary Gold Rush–era San Francisco punch: pisco brightened with pineapple and citrus over a float of dry white wine, with clove warmth running underneath. Deceptively light and dangerously moreish.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Pisco
  • 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 oz Simple Syrup
  • 3/4 oz Pineapple Juice
  • 1 oz Dry White Wine
  • 3 pieces Cloves

Method

Gently mash the simple syrup with the cloves in a shaker. Add pisco, lemon juice, and pineapple juice with ice. Shake and double strain into a chilled coupe glass. Float the dry white wine on top and gently stir. Garnish with a pineapple wedge.
