Classic Central and South American Dishes

Both Chile and Peru take credit for the creation of the Pisco Sour, which features pisco (a South American brandy), lemon juice, simple syrup, egg whites, and bitters. Chile attributes the origin of this drink to an English sailor who settled there in the 1870s, while Peru claims that it was invented in Bar Nichole in the early 1920s. Like the Mojito, the Pisco Sour continues to gain popularity in the U.S.
