AMARETTO COCKTAILS

Amaretto (Italian for “a little bitter”) is a sweet Italian liqueur that originated in Saronno, Italy. Originally flavoured from bitter almonds, now modern commercial brands often use a base of apricot pits, peach pits, or almonds, which provide the almond-like flavour of the liqueur.

Amaretto is often served on its own, with coffee or in cocktails such as the Amaretto Sour.
