Method

Preparation

1

Prepare Almonds

Blanch and peel the almonds. To blanch, place the almonds in boiling water for about 1 minute, then transfer them to cold water. The skins should easily slip off.

2

Create Almond Syrup

In a saucepan, combine the blanched almonds, sugar, and water. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Allow the syrup to simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

3

Infuse Flavor

Once the almond syrup has cooled, add the split vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, nutmeg, and cloves to the mixture. If using apricot kernels, add them now as well. Cover and let it steep for at least 24 hours in a cool, dark place.

Final Steps

4

Combine with Alcohol

After the infusion period, remove the spices and vanilla bean from the almond syrup. In a large jar or bottle, combine the infused syrup with the neutral spirit. Seal tightly.

5

Maturation

Store the bottle in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks to allow the flavors to meld. Shake the bottle gently every few days.

6

Serve

After the maturation period, your Lazzaroni Amaretto is ready to be enjoyed. Serve it neat, on the rocks, or in your favorite cocktails.
