Almond Inferno
GLASSWARE: MERIDIAN TUMBLERS (VISKI)
It’s national Amaretto Day, so let’s celebrate with this riff on a Paper Plane!
Surprisingly enough, Amaretto (such as the well-known Disaronno) is not made with almonds, or even nuts! To achieve this almond flavor, it’s made with oil extracted from bitter apricot kernels, giving it a slight bitterness.
Ingredients:
¾ oz amaretto
¾ oz amaro nonino
¾ oz aperol
¾ oz lemon juice
10 drops spicy bitters
1 egg white
garnish: dehydrated lemon
Directions:
In a cocktail shaker, combine amaretto, amaro, aperol, lemon juice, and disco inferno. Add ice and shake until very cold. Strain out the ice, add the egg white, and shake again. Pour over fresh ice in a rocks glass and garnish with a dehydrated lemon.
