Notes
You can replace the pisco with whiskey for a cranberry whiskey sour.
If you don't have time (or extra cranberries) to make the cranberry simple syrup, just use regular simple syrup.
Also, if you can’t find pisco you can use another grape brandy or Italian grappa.
For a mocktail or non-alcoholic version replace the pisco with your choice of zero-proof alternatives or good old sparkling water.
