Elevate your cocktail game with this Sugar-Free Amaretto Sour, a guilt-free twist on the classic recipe! This delightful drink combines the rich almond flavor of amaretto liqueur with the bright tang of fresh lemon juice, perfectly balanced by sugar-free simple syrup for a healthier alternative. A frothy egg white adds luxurious texture, while a vigorous shake creates a beautifully emulsified finish. Serve over ice and garnish with a lemon wheel or maraschino cherry for an elegant touch (optional if you're counting carbs!). Ready in just 5 minutes, this low-sugar amaretto sour is the perfect refreshment for those seeking a sophisticated yet health-conscious beverage.
Start by preparing your sugar-free simple syrup if you haven't done so. Combine equal parts of your preferred sugar substitute (like Stevia or Erythritol) and water, heat until fully dissolved, then let it cool.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the amaretto liqueur, fresh lemon juice, sugar-free simple syrup, and egg white.
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously without ice for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white, creating a rich, frothy texture.
Add a cup of ice cubes to the shaker and shake again for an additional 15 seconds until well-chilled.
Strain the mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice cubes.
Garnish with a lemon wheel and optionally, a maraschino cherry for added visual appeal, keeping in mind the sugar content of the cherry if considering sugar intake.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Sugar-Free Amaretto Sour!
