This Disaronno Day, celebrate La Dolce Vita with amaretto liqueur
This Disaronno Day, 19 April, why not celebrate the Renaissance of the Italian spirit with Disaronno’s warm and sophisticated amaretto liqueur.
Originating from Saronno, Italy, where it is still produced, Disaronno’s secret recipe dates back to 1525. Using only carefully selected ingredients and no additives, the distinctive, amber-coloured liqueur gets its colour from caramelised sugar. It is made from the pure essence of 17 herbs and fruits soaked in apricot kernel oil to create the unmistakable almond and peach flavour.
The rich and bold Italian taste and elegance of Disaronno make it a versatile liqueur that can be enjoyed on the rocks for a delectable digestif, to create a delicious variety of craft cocktails such as a refreshing Disaronno Sour or Disaronno Fizz, and for adding depth and texture to desserts such as ice-cream and tiramisu.
Steeped in history, the intrinsic Italian craftsmanship of the Disaronno brand extends to the iconic square bottle and black embossed cap hand-crafted by master glassmakers from Murano, Italy.
