Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz pisco
  • 1 oz dry sparkling wine
  • 3/4 oz honey syrup (2 parts honey to 1 part water)
  • 1/2 oz lemon juice
  • Small pinch of salt
  • 1 dash peach bitters (optional)
  • 1/2 golden plum (also known as Mirabelle plum)
  • 5 leaves sage (2 for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Add three sage leaves to the bottom of your shaker and pour in the honey syrup. Gently muddle the sage to release its oil into the mixture.
  2. Quarter the half plum and add it to the shaker with the sage-honey syrup. Crush the fruit to extract as much plum juice as possible.
  3. Add the pisco, lemon juice, salt, and peach bitters (if using) to the shaker.
  4. Pour the dry sparkling wine into your glass before shaking the cocktail. Use a Cava Brut for a balanced sweetness.
  5. Fill the shaker with ice, shake for 10 seconds until icy-cold, then double strain the mixture into a coupe glass over the sparkling wine.
  6. Garnish with a few small pieces of sage and enjoy!
