Amaretto
Amaretto (Italian for "a little bitter") is a sweet Italian liqueur that originated in Saronno.

It generally contains 21 to 28 percent alcohol by volume.When served as a beverage, amaretto can be drunk by itself, used as an ingredient to create several popular mixed drinks, or added to coffee. Amaretto is also commonly used in culinary applications.
