For a deeper, more complex flavor, consider adding a few drops of bitter almond oil (use sparingly, as it is very potent). Use high-quality extracts for the best flavor. Avoid imitation extracts. If you prefer a less sweet Amaretto, reduce the amount of sugar slightly. This Amaretto makes a wonderful homemade gift. Present it in a beautiful bottle with a personalized label.
