History

Pisco Punch was created by Duncan Nicol at the Bank Exchange saloon in San Francisco in the late 1800s and became the city's signature drink. The exact recipe — pisco, pineapple and citrus — was a closely guarded secret, and it was largely lost when Prohibition closed the bar, fueling decades of speculation.
