Wow, Simon, you did great ! Just made this as I just got my Bobs Bitters Vanilla in the mail today! Even dug around and found three, plain organic almonds to boot! Only difference , I had Martini & Rossi extra dry vermouth on hand !

I didn't have vanilla bitters so used vanilla extract and expressed lemon peel, then added as garnish. For my palate, this added a tart layer that balanced well with the amaretto and vodka.

Lovely almond flavor without being too sweet.

Had this after dinner with an strawberry almond tarte. It is great and went well with the almond dessert. Would do again. Not too sweet.
