Αξιολόγηση:

A Regal Shake adds zesty oils, which, along with citrus juice, balance this almond-flavoured sour.

Ιστορία:

Perhaps the most popular iteration of the many classic Stone Sours. The earliest reference to an Amaretto Stone Sour cocktail historian David Wondrich says he's found is as the "Drink of the Week" in an 1982 newspaper advertisement for the Diamond Supper Club in Menomonie, Wisconsin. Six years later, the Amaretto Stone Sour is one of seven Stone Sours in Vincent Sardi Jr. & George Shea's 1988 Sardi's Bar Guide.

AMARETTO STONE SOUR
A stone sour is, of course, a sour with the addition of orange juice.
1 teaspoon superfine sugar
1 ounce lemon juice, preferably freshly squeezed
2 ounces amaretto*
2 ounces orange juice, preferably freshly squeezed
½ slice orange or lemon for garnish
1 maraschino cherry for garnish
Combine ingredients with ice cubes in a cocktail shaker. Shake. Strain into cocktail glass, or empty contents, ice cubes and all, into an Old-Fashioned glass and serve on the rocks. Garnish with ½ slice orange or lemon and a maraschino cherry.
*Preferred Ingredients: amaretto: Amaretto di Saronno. See Liqueur (page51); fresh-squeezed orange and lemon juices.
