Notes
Be sure that you are adding bourbon whisky to this amaretto sour recipe for the best flavor. There are different types of whisky on the market. They are distinctive in taste and the way they are made. Bourbon is smoother in mouthfeel and has a sweeter flavor. It is excellent for sipping straight on the rocks. Be sure to use a mid to high-grade brand.
