Amaretto Stone Sour Recipe

Amaretto, Orange Juice, Sweet and Sour




amaretto stone sour
This amaretto stone sour recipe is similar to a amaretto sour. The catch? This drink adds orange juice. I'm somewhat of an over-achiver so I squeeze my oranges. Don't feel obligated. But it does make this drink that much better tasting. And really now that we are on it, produce sections ALWAYS have oranges - so make the extra effort. Ok - or not. Your choice.

If this isn't the type of amaretto drink you were looking for - you may be hunting for:

Amaretto Stone Sour Recipe

YIELD: 1 Serving

Ingredients:

* 1 part amaretto

* 1 part orange juice

* 1 part sweet and sour mix (see below)



Procedure

* Uh, lets see..

* Mix and drink!






What is amaretto?

A sweet almond tasting liqueur. It's Italian! But it's available at almost all liquor stores.

What is the recipe for sweet and sour?

About equal amounts of lemon and sugar and water mixed together. Don't' get all scientific about it - just dissolve the sugar with warm water first then add lemon last. That's it! Really!

What about bottled sweet and sour mix?

It's gross. Enough said. Your store has lemons. You have sugar. Grab a lemon when you are grabbing the oranges to make this!

lisa gianotti I love sugar and I eat dessert EVERYDAY! Ok, not MASSIVE amounts. But I do have to finish off the evening meal with a little sweet something.

When I was a kid my health conscience mother would ration my Halloween candy. Her mantra was, "white sugar will kill you". But my Italian grandma always told me, "Everybody needs a little bit of sugar." :-) So, to get my October Halloween sugar fix I will make the traditional Italian cookie recipe, Venetian Bones of the Dead. Italians make these for the Day of the Dead on November 2nd. So - hey, our holiday in America - Halloween is the closest.

So - while the neighborhood is slamming down a bunch of gross mass produced candy on October 31st, I'll have a real goodie. Oh yeah, I'll have to post it too! (Eventually!) You know how it is. Work. Kids. Clean. Cook.



I'll see if Bones Of The Dead is in my grandma's first recipe file she started when she married in 1932. Most of the recipes on my site came from her influence. If they aren't in her file - then I got them from her friends. And the remainder I experimented with adapting her style.

I hope she looks down and smiles this Halloween.
