"We were at altitude and had been a little slow all day — but once we got into the kitchen something shifted. The instructor handed everyone a task right away, no awkward standing around. Someone made the Pisco Sours, someone else started the sauce, and before long the whole room smelled incredible and everyone was talking. The food we cooked was genuinely good — better than things we'd eaten at restaurants in Cusco — and we made it ourselves, which somehow made it taste better..."

...The Pisco Sour I mixed myself was the best one I had in Peru.
