With a heady and unexpected smell, my first drink of Disaronno a few weeks back was delicious. I had always thought of it as a little too flashy of a liqueur because of their
commercials a few years back. The cocktail I was making was the
penultimate on my goal to try all 10;
The Godfather. I have no plans currently to try the Zombie, though I'm sure I will eventually. If it warrants, perhaps it will return on a post about the undead?
Much to my surprise, Disaronno is a delicious and unique drink. Dating back
hundreds of years, Ameretto now appears to me to be a nice addition to the homebar. While not yet worthy of a 'core' liqueur status, I certainly don't regret adding a bottle of Disaronno like I do that bottle of
Floe Gin from a while back. Update: DON'T expect a post about making my own Sloe Gin, that stuff is not good.
