Amaretto Sour (by Jeffrey Morgenthaler)
As the name suggests, this cocktail is dominated by amaretto, with lemon juice providing the sour balancing element and a slug of bourbon giving backbone

I’d love to see you All-star list. Are you willing to share?
As an All Star, I’ll make minor adjustments, and take notes on the outcomes, until I’ve found what’s perfect for us. For instance, demerara is good – but it adds an extra complexity that might be a distraction, so I’ll give simple syrup a try. Bourbon or rye? A gentler, more rounded whisky, or something that announces its presence with elbows up? The bottom line is that this cocktail is a keeper.
