    Disaronno Amaretto

    For several months, artist Bernardino Luini worked closely with a model to help him paint a fresco of the Madonna in Saronno, Italy. As the months passed, the girl, whose name has since been forgotten, fell in love with Bernardino. To show her feelings for him, the girl gave Bernardino a gift of sweet almond-flavored liqueur she made from the trees growing in her garden. The year was 1525, and that bottle is said to have been the first Disaronno Amaretto. The recipe was passed down through the ages, until late in the eighteenth century, when the liqueur went into commercial production.

    Use my Disaronno Amaretto recipe below and give someone a bottle, whether they paint you on a wall or not.

    You can make other liqueurs at home using my copycat drink recipes, including Bailey's, Kahlua, and Grand Marnier.
