Amaretto Sour

Traditionally enjoyed as a refreshing drink, it balances the sweetness of amaretto with the tartness of lemon juice, making it a popular choice at bars and parties. Today, variations abound, with some recipes incorporating egg whites for a frothy texture, further enhancing its appeal as a versatile cocktail.
