The past few days have been full of errands. I have been running nonstop from one place to another. This afternoon, arms loaded with bags, I came in my front door, dropped everything and made this cocktail. An ‘Au Natural’ plum cooler with my favorite pisco. It was the perfect way to un-wind and catch my breath.
- 2 oz Encanto Pisco
- 3 oz Plum Syrup
- 1 oz Fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1 oz Sage Brown Sugar Simple Syrup
- Fever Tree Club Soda
Add all ingredients into a chilled rocks glass with ice. Bar spoon stir. Top with Fever Tree Club Soda, stir again. Garnish with a sprig of sage and a plum wedge.
