If you haven’t already, it’s time to get in the summer spirit with amaro. The Italian liqueur adds the perfect bitter-sweet to your sips.
Barrel-aged for 12 months, we chose to feature the Amaro Donna Rosa in this cocktail. It’s infused with roots and herbs and brings notes of flowers, rhubarb, and warm vanilla, all perfect flavors for this drink.
