Peruvian Pisco Sour Jello Shots for New Years Eve parties – Mini Pisco Sour Peruano hecho con gelatina ideal para la fiesta de Año Nuevo

December 24, 2018 SouthAmerica

This popular party treat is recreated with a Peruvian twist to make a Jello shot that appears and tastes like Pisco Sour, the national drink of Peru. Pisco Sour consists of Peruvian Pisco, lime, egg white, with a drop of bitters. The drink is typically served in a high-ball glass and has a frothy white top from the egg white. To make the Pisco Sour Jello Shots we used the small plastic cups commonly for serving this gelatinous novelty, and combined lemon flavored jello with Pisco. We filled the cups ¾, then let the Jello set up overnight. The Jello was topped with whip cream, planed off to be level, and then using a drink mixer, carefully dabbed a couple dots of bitters, being mindful to scale down the appearance of the original Pisco Sour to this smaller wiggling party surprise.

It is ideal for New Years Eve parties being conscious of Peruvian customs, one should make many of them because these shots will disappear fast!

Other typical Peruvian New Years beliefs include running around the block at midnight with one luggage to have luck for traveling in the new year, eating 12 grapes under the table making wishes, and wearing yellow underwear.

To make the Pisco Sour Jello Shots-makes about 16 shots

You need 1 package of 3oz. lemon jello and a package of shooter glasses of 1oz. (28 ml.)

To make the lemon jello, add (as directed on box,) one cup of hot water, until completely dissolved.

Add 1/2 cup of cold water, and 1/2 cup of Pisco, this time we are using Pisco Barsol-Quebranta.

Once the jello mix is made, pour into the Jello shot cups, leaving enough room to add the Whip Cream and drops of Angostura Bitters topping.

Cool as directed on box, or overnight.

Decoration

Before serving, top with whip cream, planing it to level it off by scraping it off with a knife.

Add some very small drops of bitters.

Serve immediately because the whip cream tends to deflate, losing the overall effect of the Pisco Sour mini drink clone.

Enjoy!

La receta es simple, lo unico que hay que hacer es seguir las instrucciones de la caja de la gelatina, substituir cierta cantidad de agua por el Pisco y decorar con crema batida. De modo que aqui vamos.

Ingredientes:

1 caja de gelatina de 3 onzas de Sabor limon (amarillo)

En un tazon añadir la gelatina en polvo, luego agregar una taza de agua hirviendo, mezclar hasta que todo el azucar de la gelatina se diluya.

Luego las instrucciones indican agregar una taza de agua fria, pero vamos a substituir 1/2 taza de agua por 1/2 de taza de Pisco. Agragar la otra 1/2 taza de agua fria, mezclar bien.

Vaciar la gelatina diluida en los vasitos, llenar solo hasta un poco mas de la mitad.
