This is probably one of my favorite drinks right now. It’s hard to mess up the recipe and just about everyone loves it. The secret for me, as I’ve stated before, is using fresh juice. Sour mix just isn’t the same.
The ingredients are:
2 1/2 to 3 oz. Amaretto liqueur (preferrably Disaronno)
1 whole lemon juiced
4 to 5 drops of bitters
1 Maraschino cherry (optional)
Put a cup of ice into a cocktail shaker. Drop the bitters in first. Then add the amaretto and lemon juice. Shake the usual 20 to 30 seconds. Pour the frothy concoction into a chilled cocktail glass with a maraschino cherry. I say 2 1/2 to 3 ounces of amaretto because it depends on how sour you like your drink. The less you use, the more you’ll pucker. Just adjust the recipe to taste. Enjoy!
