This is another cocktail that I had to try from Trader Vic’s book. To be honest, outside of the Pisco Sour that I made almost 2 years ago, I never reach for the Pisco in my home bar, so it’s definitely time I dug up another good Pisco recipe.
And this is a good one! It’s pretty sweet with both triple sec and grenadine, so even those who don’t like stronger drinks might want to give this one a shot. Here’s how you make it:
Don Alberto
- 1 1/2 oz pisco
- 1 1/2 oz Italian (red) vermouth
- 3/4 oz triple sec
- 3/4 oz grenadine (I used Jack Rudy)
- stir well with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass
Very similar to El presidente cocktail.
