From the Bartender

Pisco Punch originated at the Bank Exchange saloon in San Francisco during the Gold Rush era, made famous by barkeeper Duncan Nicol. The white wine float is a subtle but important finishing touch - it adds effervescence, acidity, and length without diluting the body of the drink.
