Pisco Sours bring out festivities of Peru: 28-01-2008

Pisco Sours bring out festivities of Peru18444190Peruvians love their Pisco Sour so much that they hassled their government to name a day of celebration on which they could enjoy the drink.

They chose February 2nd and all over Lima there are multiple events to celebrate the national drink.

Travellers will be more than welcome to taste the drink and enjoy the festivities alongside the locals and tastings, competitions and even beauty contests can be expected.

Pisco is made with lemon juice, egg whites and ice with some local events including a touch of Angostura bitters.

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Lima is the capital of Peru and the largest city in the country.

Lima has been inhabited by many different groups including Incas and the Spanish and its city centre has been named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site to preserve the large numbers of historical buildings that date from the Spanish colonial era.
