Portland bartender and author, Jeffrey Morgenthaler, saved the drink's reputation by using fresh ingredients and adding in a cask-strength bourbon whiskey. Amaretto liqueur is too sweet and weak on its own, so the higher-strength whiskey adds proof, cutting back it's sweetness, whilst the fresh egg white adds a velvety texture.
AMARETTO SOUR
- 1.5 oz (45 ml) amaretto
- 0.75 (22.5 ml) cask-strength bourbon whiskey
- 1 oz (30 ml) lemon juice
- 1 tsp (5 ml) rich syrup
- 0.5 oz (15 ml) egg white
Shout out to @KevinKos for the milk frother hack (4:34) and @jeffmorgen for the greatest Amaretto Sour! Watch the original video on the Small Screen Network: youtube.com/watch?v=UH86PCQwBug
