Think of this as a Peruvian Moscow Mule, but the bitters add a nice spice. Invented somewhere in the early 1900s in Peru, it can be prepared with simple syrup and bitters or without. While the bitters add a nice kick to the drink, if you choose to prepare it without syrup and bitters, I would add 1 oz (30mls) of ginger beer. The chilcano predates the Moscow Mule, but it is unknown if the chilcano had any influence on creating the Moscow mule in Los Angeles.
