Italian almond-flavored liqueur for desserts and cocktails.
Substitutes
Maple Syrup — 1:1 (add 1/4 tsp almond extract). Maple syrup with a splash of almond extract delivers amaretto's sweet, nutty character without alcohol; ideal for baking and dessert sauces.
Vanilla Extract — 1 tsp vanilla extract per 2 tbsp amaretto. Vanilla extract mimics the sweet, warm notes. Add a drop of almond extract if available.
Almond Milk — 2 tbsp almond milk + 1/2 tsp vanilla per 2 tbsp amaretto. Almond milk captures the nutty flavor without alcohol. Works in desserts and coffee drinks.
