Notes
Tips
It's best to use plain soda water or club soda, as they don't have any added flavorings or sweeteners. This will ensure that the soda water doesn't overpower the nutty and sweet flavor of the amaretto liqueur.
To adjust the sweetness of the cocktail, you can add a dash of simple syrup, maple syrup, or agave syrup. To decrease the amount of sweetness, add more soda water or decrease the amaretto slightly.
