We have been big fans of Amaretto and its marzipan flavour for as long as we can remember. But it was a shame not to be able to buy an Australian made Amaretto, so we decided to take matters into their own hands and make our own!
This is a stripped down version of the classic Italian Amaretto, but with an Australian twist. To make it, we smash apart Australian grown bitter almonds (a by-product of the apricot industry), then cook and infuse them in a clean sugarcane spirit for several weeks. This is where we get that big bold marzipan flavour that fellow Amaretto lovers will recognise immediately. Then we add a pinch of wild Strawberry Gum leaves, harvested from outback NSW, which adds an extra floral boost.
Contains precisely 0.0% artificial colours, flavours and preservatives. Vegan friendly (we don't use any animal products nor processes throughout). Gluten free.
Tasting Notes & Cocktail Ideas:
On the nose, there's thick marzipan notes but also a smattering of floral and herbal aromas, thanks in part to the addition of Strawberry Gum. A quick swirl opens it up further.
On the palate, you're greeted with an explosion of marzipan flavour thanks to a generous infusion of bitter almonds. Its thick, decadent and syrup-like with plenty of sweetness but not visit the dentist sweet.
On the finish, expect a long drawn-out ending with brown sugar playing a key role in the length. Its flavours will dance around on your tongue like a house party into the wee hours of the morning.
We like simple, no-fuss cocktails. Heres a small handful to get you started:
Marzipan Spritzer: Pour 45ml Amaretto and 120ml soda water into a big wine glass. Plonk in some ice and sprinkle over some ripped mint leaves.
Godfather: Combine 30ml Amaretto and 60ml blended whisky in an old fashioned glass. Throw in a block of ice and stir until very cold.
Amaretto Sour: Combine 60ml Amaretto, 30ml fresh lemon juice and 15ml egg white in a cocktail shaker. Dont add any ice. Shake like youve never shaken before. Add ice and shake again until cold. Strain into your fanciest glass and garnish with a cherry.
