Amaretto (Italian for 'a little bitter') is a sweet Italian liqueur originating from the comune (municipality) of Saronno. Depending on the brand, it may be made from apricot kernels , bitter almonds , peach stones, or almonds , all of which are natural sources of the benzaldehyde that provides the almond-like flavour of the liqueur.

Disaronno can be served neat as a liqueur, on the rocks, or as part of a cocktail mixed with other alcoholic beverages, cola, ginger ale, or fruit juice. It may also be added to hot chocolate and is an ingredient in the Italian variant of an Irish coffee. The amaretto liqueur can also be used in the Italian dessert tiramisu. [5]
