The Amaretto Stinger is a smooth and elegant after-dinner cocktail served straight up in a martini glass. It blends the warm sweetness of Amaretto with the refreshing, minty character of White Crème de Menthe, creating a silky, aromatic drink with a cool finish.
Shake Amaretto and White Crème de Menthe vigorously with cracked ice. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig for an aromatic touch.
Always served straight up in a martini glass, with a mint sprig resting on the rim or floating lightly on the surface. Clean, minimal, elegant.
Pairs beautifully with almond-based desserts, dark chocolate truffles, or light mousse dishes.
A modern variation of the historic Stinger cocktail, traditionally made with brandy and crème de menthe. This Amaretto version softens the profile and adds a warm, nutty sweetness.
Ideal as an after-dinner drink, perfect for slow sipping and late-night relaxation.
Smooth, sweet, and gently minty. The first sip is warm and velvety, followed by a clean, cooling finish from the crème de menthe.
Elegant, composed, and slightly indulgent — a classic digestif with a contemporary twist.
For a creamy version, add a splash of cream. For a brighter twist, incorporate a drop of fresh lemon juice.
