I do love amaretto cocktails but I must admit most of the time I drink it likes a sweet whiskey, just over some ice and let it get even sweeter as the ice begins to break down. Very good for my sweet tooth and my enjoyment of having alcohol
Heading into fall, a good amaretto cocktail/drink is the blueberry tea. 1oz amaretto 1oz orange liqueur (traditionally, Grand Marnier) 4-6oz orange pekoe tea (entirely about preference) It's served hot. Some serve it in a brandy snifter. Granishes can include luxardo maraschino cherries, orange wheel. But yeah, it's kinda like Hot Toddy. Nice evening drink, especially in winter
@@brianherman503 some people swear it tastes kind of like blueberries, others say it's a joke, others say it's like how the Long Island Ice Tea has no tea in it 🤷♂️ just the name that stuck for whatever reason at the end of the day
I've been a fan of the Amaretto Sour. The Apricot French Connection and the Amaretto Revolver sound really good! The Italian Mai Tai is another favorite for me. Cheers!
I would never use this background music for much of anything…. Damn if it doesn’t work for the channel or this video 👍🏻. Good cocktails info/ presentation too…..
Wow, wow, just wow! The maraschino liqueur gives it a nice complexity and dryness. I like this one better than original with bourbon. Well done! #cheers 🥂
Don't forget the "Trader Vic" classic Mai Tai! Works great with Disaronno! My simple take on this classic: 2cl Light Rum 3cl Dark Rum 2cl Cointreau 1cl Disaronno Top of with Orange juice and Ananas juice, drop in som grenadine for effect! (I usually skip the light rum and double the dark one as I favor the dark ones. Increase the Disaronno for more sweetness)
@@DarkSky513 ...as I wrote "my simple take" and it's not that far from the IBA version: 30 ml amber Jamaican rum 30 ml Martinique molasses rhum 15 ml orange curaçao 15 ml orgeat syrup (almond) 30 ml fresh lime juice 7.5 ml simple syrup ...but please feel free to share your version.
Thank you. Made godfather with whiskey and bourbon separately and compared the two. I liked the bourbon version more. Ofc it depends which product you use
Great video. Replace the famous Disaronno liqueur with a real high qualitity almond based Amaretto like Adriatico, and the cockatails will be even better.
Give it a nice silky texture and foam, along with cutting down on acidity a little. If you are hesitant to use egg whites, the best substitute is no sodium chick pea juice.
Hi there! We really appreciate your insight on cocktails, especially making clear ice and believe our new heated ice press will be suitable for your ice. Is there an opportunity for us to give you one for free in exchange for your valuable words on this product? If you're interested, we'll arrange to get the ice press to you at your earliest convenience. Thanks so much!
Yes it is. But if you'd like to point to the United States law that says it is not or does not quality for that distinction, please feel free to share here. Thanks.

that's the benzaldehyde or something like that is a byproduct produced by the apricot pits inthe process of distilling amaretto and that's this byproduct benzaldehyde that gives that almondy,nutty flavor
I have all these but never combined them. Amazing thanks for this! I use amarena fabbri cherries and some of the syrup instead of the maple syrup you mentioned. Give that a go if you're keen!
