Chilcano is the Peruvian cocktail that’s easiest and quickest to make. You just need to mix a few ingredients and it’s all done! As I always tell every one of my friends, pisco drinks are delicious, but be careful because they tend to appear innocent, but can sometimes be deceptive. Much like everything else, you should enjoy them in moderation.
