    Directions
    1. Chop the dried apricots and crush all the dry ingredients just a little. They only need to be crushed enough to release the flavor.
    2. Combine the apricots and dry ingredients in a 1 quart jar, add 1 cup of vodka, 1 cup of brandy, then seal up and store for 21 days, shaking the jar at least twice per day.
    3. Strain out the solids, then filter the liquid through coffee filters 1 to 3 times to clarify it.
    4. While the extract is filtering, add ½ cup of water to ½ cup of coconut sugar and heat it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes until the sugar is dissolved.
    5. Then lightly caramelize the white sugar over medium heat in a non-stick sauce pot, stirring occasionally. It will melt, then turn brown quickly. Lower the heat to brown it slowly and avoid burning the sugar.
    6. Carefully add the coconut sugar simple syrup to the caramel and stir it until all lumps are completely dissolved. You may need to reheat it slightly to help it dissolve. Allow it to cool, then add the remaining 1/2 cup of vodka to this syrup.
    7. After the amaretto extract liquid has passed through the coffee filter, add the vanilla, then add the caramel syrup mixture to taste. Once you are happy with the level of sweetness, bottle the amaretto. It will be best to let it rest for a week before using to allow the flavors to marry.

    I just made one using a whisky base with almonds orange peel and sweetened with honey. It’s quite nice to be fair

    I couldn't tell you exact amounts, because I like to add until I like it, but I made an amaretto using almonds and vanilla extracts. Mixed them with a brown sugar syrup. For the spirit I used a tart cherry boche that I gave the liquor fairy. Had cherry and caramel flavors. Absolutely the best amaretto I've ever had.

    This is a great video. I’m an almond farmer and wanted to say that some varieties have a lot more distinct amaretto flavor than others. The variety we are harvesting now taste a lot like amaretto and made me rewatch this video

    Adding a small amount of lime (calcium hydroxide) and iron sulphate to the maceration and then distilling will bind up most of the cyanide (it forms a non-volatile iron salt) but allows the benzaldehyde (almond flavour) to distil over. If the cyanide isn't bound up it will just distil over into the final product. Thanks for the link to AoD, drink safely.

    If you lightly toast nuts and herbs it will be a much more intense flavor… love the vids bro!

    Have you ever thought of making a recipe book with all your drinks. Explaining the science and equipment used for each drink? I know for sure if buy it.

    Wondered where this went. It popped up then went away soon as I commented. Thanks for posting this. I love Ameretto. If this is anything like DiSaronno I'm excited. I put that in my coffee all the time.

    Never drank coffee until I retired about three years. Now, every afternoon, it is coffee, Irish whiskey, Irish cream & a drop of chocolate syrup. Will have to try the amaretto when I get tired of my current concoction. Always enjoy your videos!
