Pisco Sour but Make it Pink!

Every Peruvian reading this might gasp at the indignation that I have turned the traditional Pisco Sour pink! It was a worthy experiment and perfect to celebrate Valentine's day with your significant other or your gal pals. 

Ingredients:

3 oz of your favorite Pisco

1 oz lavender syrup

1 oz lime juice

1 egg white

Sprigs of lavender

Instructions:

  1. Put your pisco, lavender syrup, lime juice, and egg white into your shaker. 

  2. Shake 

  3. Shake until you see some severe froth 

  4. *We use a blender in our home. However, it is completely optional and can get the results with a shaker. It will just take a little longer. 

  5. Let the drink settle, and then pour.

  6. Garnish with a sprig of lavender.

  7. Enjoy! Salud! Prost! Cheers!

Liz has been living in the Stafford area for the last two years. However, her ties are rooted to Virginia, as Virginia was her first duty station while she was on active duty with the Marine Corps. Her husband is still on active duty, and they hope to make Stafford their forever home with their two daughters and two rescue dogs.

While serving in the Marine Corps and Marine Corps reserves has allowed Liz to see all parts of the country and the world, there is truly no place like home. Working on this magazine gives Liz the opportunity to meet her neighbors and the local businesses and more importantly, she gets to showcase them to others.

Liz is also the founder of a nonprofit called Leave No Paws Behind USA. She led the campaign to have legislative change to include pet transportation fees included in military moves. With her leadership, the bill was passed in the FY23 National Defense Appropriation Act.

Liz is excited to continue to write the stories of the FXBG Neighbors
