How to make an Amaretto Sour? A clasic in the world of cocktails that marries the sweetness of amaretto with the acidity of lemon, offering a perfectly balanced taste experience. It's ideal for those looking for a drink that's elegant yet simple to prepare. The amaretto sour cocktail is distinguished by its aromatic richness, thanks to amaretto, an alcohol made from almond nuts. Amaretto Sour is an excellent option for evenings out with friends, or for impressing your guests with a refined cocktail. In this recipe, you'll learn how to make a homemade Amaretto Sour with egg white, allowing you to enjoy a true masterpiece.

Ingredients

  • 50 ml Amaretto (alcohol made from almond kernels)
  • 25 ml fresh lemon juice
  • 15 ml sugar syrup (or simple syrup)

  • Ice cubes
  • 1 lemon slice (for garnish)
  • 1 maraschino cherry (for garnish)

recipe steps

  1. Preparing the ingredients To begin, prepare all your ingredients. Squeeze a lemon to obtain about 25 ml of fresh juice. If you opt for homemade sugar syrup, you can prepare it by mixing 1 part water and 1 part sugar, then heat until the sugar dissolves.

              Is it possible to make an alcohol-free amaretto sour recipe?

              Yes, it's perfectly possible to make a non-alcoholic amaretto sour. To replace the amaretto, you can use almond syrup (or orgeat) mixed with a little cherry juice or sweet almond extract. The taste is similar, but without the alcohol. This is an excellent option for children, pregnant women or simply for those who want a festive cocktail without the alcohol.

              What ingredients should I use for an alcohol-free amaretto sour?

              Here's a simple version:

              • 60 ml orgeat syrup (or almond syrup)

              • 30 ml fresh lemon juice

              • 15 ml cherry or pineapple juice (optional, for flavor and color)

              • 1 egg white (optional, for the mousse)

              • Ice cubes

              You can mix everything in a shaker with or without egg, depending on the texture you want.

              Is egg white mandatory in an amaretto sour?

              No. The egg white is used to add a light mousse to the top of the cocktail, but it's not essential. You can remove it altogether for a lighter version, or use a vegan substitute like aquafaba (chickpea juice) if you want an egg-free mousse.

              What's the difference between a classic amaretto sour and a non-alcoholic one?

              The classic version contains amaretto, an Italian almond liqueur, while the alcohol-free version uses a syrup with a similar taste. The taste is a little less complex, but remains sweet, fruity and pleasant on the palate.
