There are a great many nutty liqueurs in the world, owing to the abundance of nuts and fruit stones across the world that have seen a place in cuisine for centuries. Of these, the most prominent is likely Amaretto whose principal flavour is that of almonds. Walnuts, hazelnuts and apricot stones also see much use in this category. Popular as both an aperitif and as a digestif, nutty liqueurs also make an important part of many cocktails and are great with desserts. |
