cup club soda

6 cups ice cubes - (about)

Lime slices for garnish

This recipe yields 12 cups; 12 servings.

Comments: Pisco is a South American brandy made from Muscat grapes; for less intensity, substitute a Muscat wine such as Essensia or Beaumes-de-Venise. To serve in a salt-rimmed glass, rub a lime wedge around rim, dip in salt, then add ice and pisco mixture. If making up to 1 day ahead, mix pisco, lime juice, and tangerine juice; cover and chill. Add club soda just before serving.
