How do you make an Amaretto Sour?
To start with use a tumbler glass. These glasses we always use for Sour cocktails. To prepare the cocktail we are going to need a cocktail shaker. Put some ice in the shaker. Now add the sugar syrup, fresh lemon juice and amaretto to the shaker. The last thing you are going to add before shaking is the egg white. You have to neatly seperate the egg whites from the yellow and only use the egg white. For one cocktail you will only need 1/3 of the egg white. Give it a good shake now. Fill up the glass with crushed ice and pour the cocktail into the glass. Add a cocktail cherry as garnish and ta-da, you can enjoy your very own Amaretto Sour.
Sour variations
You can make a lot of variations with Sour cocktails. For example the Drambuie Sour, Licor 43 Sour or a Frangelico Sour. All very nice combinations of sweet and sour.
