Who created the Pisco Punch?
The Pisco Punch was created by Duncan Nichol
Original Recipe
The California Historical Society (1973).
1. Take a fresh pineapple. Cut it in squares about 1/2 by 1 1/2 inches. Put these squares of fresh pineapple in a bowl of gum syrup* to soak overnight. That serves the double purpose of flavoring the gum syrup with the pineapple and soaking the pineapple, both of which are used afterwards in the Pisco Punch.
2. In the morning mix in a big bowl the following:
- 1/2 pint (8 oz) of the gum syrup, pineapple flavoured as above
- 1 pint (16 oz) distilled water
- 3/4 pint (10 oz [sic]) Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 bottle (24 oz) Peruvian Pisco Brandy
Serve very cold but be careful not to keep the ice in too long because of dilution. Use 3 or four oz punch glasses. Put one of these above squares of pineapple in each glass. Lemon juice or gum syrup may be added to taste.
