Description

Featuring more than 100 recipes, Amaro is the first book to demystify the ever-expanding, bittersweet world, and is a should-have for any home cocktail enthusiast or industry professional.

The European tradition of making bittersweet liqueurs–referred to as amari in Italian–has been around for centuries. But it is just recently that these herbaceous digestifs have moved from the dusty back bar to center stage in the USA, and transform a key ingredient on cocktail lists in the country’s best bars and restaurants. Lucky for us, nowadays there’s a dizzying range of amaro to be had—from familiar favorites like Averna and Fernet-Branca, to the growing category of regional, American-made amaro.

Starting with a rip-roaring tour of bars, cafés, and distilleries in Italy, amaro’s spiritual home, Brad Thomas Parsons—writer of the James Beard and IACP Award–winner Bitters—will open your eyes to the wealthy history and vibrant culture of amaro nowadays. With more than 100 recipes for amaro-centric cocktails, DIY amaro, and even amaro-spiked desserts, you’ll be living (and drinking) la dolce vita.
