Amaretto is a delicious way to experience almond flavour in a drink or dessert form. Amaretto is a key ingredient in popular cocktails, such as; the Amaretto Sour or the Godfather. It adds a unique sweetness and depth of flavour to these drinks.

Originally made from a neutral spirit, Amaretto gets its signature almond taste from one of, or a combination of apricot seed, bitter almonds, and peach stones. Sugar and caramel are often added to balance the subtle bitterness of almonds, creating a delightful flavoured liqueur. 

Amaretto goes beyond just sipping. Its almond essence adds a wonderful touch to various recipes, cakes, cookies, or even ice cream. Alternatively, it can be chosen as a digestif following a rich meal. In its Italian nature, it’s rumoured to help with digestion due to its sweetness. Move over Italian wines, there's a new competitor on the block!

If you are hosting a dinner party, a small bottle of amaretto can be a unique and appreciated gift to follow your meal.
