Amaretto Cocktail Ingredients

To make this Disaronno amaretto cocktail, you will need the following ingredients (go to the recipe below for exact quantities and instructions):

  • Orgeat syrupthis is a sweet syrup made from almonds, sugar, and rose water or orange flower water. If you cannot find this, you could use almond syrup
  • Cream of coconut
  • Disaronno
  • Coconut Rum: I like to use Malibu.
  • Coconut Water
  • Crushed Ice
  • Minneola tangelo: this is a citrus fruit that looks like an orange. It is a hybrid fruit that tastes like a tangerine. Can’t find Minneolas in your store? You can easily substitute a navel orange or mandarin for your garnish.

FAQs

What if I can’t find the ingredients?

You will have the most luck finding all the ingredients for this amaretto cocktails at a larger liquor store, as it does contain some specialty items. However, I have linked the ingredients above for your shopping ease. 

What is Amaretto?

You may have heard of the popular drink, the classic Amaretto Sour. Amaretto is an Italian liqueur with an almond flavor. It is also made with apricot pits and added spices. Probably the most famous amaretto liqueur is Disaronno. Amaretto has many uses beyond cocktails, including adding to pancake mix, cakes, ice cream, and other desserts.

What do I do if the cream of coconut is solid?

If your coconut cream is solid on top, then most likely it has separated. Slowly heat in a pot or in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl until it melts and mix it together. Let cool a bit before adding to your cocktail.
