Best Recipe for Guavacita
Ingredients
- 1 medium egg white
- 1 1/2 ounces pisco (recommended: Campo de Encanto Pisco, or a pisco with spicy notes)
- 3/4 ounce Guava Syrup, recipe follows
- 3/4 ounce fresh lime juice
- 1/2 ounce yellow French herbal liqueur (recommended: Yellow Chartreuse)

Instructions
- In a metal cocktail shaker, combine the egg white, pisco, Guava Syrup, lime juice, herbal liqueur and 1 dash bitters. Cap the shaker, creating a solid seal, and shake vigorously to emulsify the egg white. Uncap the shaker and fill with ice cubes. Cap the shaker again and shake vigorously to chill.
- Pour the club soda into a chilled 7-ounce fizz glass. Strain the shaker contents into the glass. Garnish with 1 dash bitters on top of the drink. Drink quickly before separation occurs.
- In small skillet, bring the sugar and 1/4 cup water to a boil. Stir until dissolved. Cool to room temperature. Stir in the guava puree and a splash of rum. Seal and store what is not used in the refrigerator for up to a week.
