Bourbon Amaretto Sour Cocktail

My Bourbon Amaretto Sour Cocktail recipe is a riff off the classic Amaretto Sour. I added bourbon and black walnut bitters to the mix for a smooth nutty cocktail garnished with nutmeg. 

How to Make a Bourbon Amaretto Sour

Prep all ingredients:

• Squeeze fresh lemon juice. 
• Separate the yolk from the egg white. 
• Grate fresh nutmeg.

First, fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Next, add all the ingredients except the nutmeg. Save that for the garnish. Shake then strain into a coupe glass. 

The egg white gives the cocktail that lacy foam top.

This recipe is a variation of the Amaretto Sour.

For a classic Amaretto Sour, it is Amaretto, Lemon, and simple syrup.

Some people add orange, cherries, and even soda like Sprite or 7up.
