Machu Pisco Cocktail
Reminiscent of a tequila sunrise, this Peruvian-born cocktail...
named after one of the most exquisite places on earth - is
quite festive! It's deep green (thanks to a bit of creme de menthe)
on the top and orange in the middle, and the grenadine sits on
the bottom (but soon starts to rise). This is a fun cocktail to
make and serve with colorful straws and umbrellas.

Ingredients:
(One Serving)
1)   Ice cubes
2)   2 oz. Pisco Liquer
3)   4 oz. fresh-squeezed Orange Juice
4)   1/4 oz. Grenadine
5)   1/4 oz. Crème de Menthe

Preparation:
1)   Fill a tall glass with ice cubes.
2)   Pour in 1 ounce of the pisco, the orange juice and the grenadine.
3)   In a cocktail shaker, combine the remaining pisco, crème de menthe and
       three ice cubes and shake well (this will lighten the crème de menthe so
       that it floats on the top).
4)   Pour on top of the orange juice mixture in the tall glass and add a straw,
       but don't stir or the colors will blend together.
