Skinny Cotton Candy Pisco Sour

Mrs. Mai Tai found some zero sugar syrups and since I’m trying to cut back on carbs and sugar I thought I’d give this a try. The cotton candy syrup is quite sweet and reminiscent of the confection favorite. I thought that a simple sour format would help to highlight the sweetener and since I had lemons rather than limes I decided to use pisco rather than rum.

Skinny Cotton Candy Pisco Sour
¾ oz Lemon Juice
¾ oz Skinny Cotton Candy Syrup
1½ oz Pisco
Shake with ice and strain into a coupe

The overall flavor is pleasant but that cotton candy is quite format in this ratio, especially when paired with the mild pisco. It can take some work to really dial in the appropriate ratio for these type of syrups.
