For An Unexpectedly Smooth Icy Drink, Store Your Amaro In The Freezer
By Wendy Gould
In the hot summer months, there are few things more refreshing than a glass of amaro, and storing it in the freezer will make the drink even smoother.
Cory Holt, beverage director at Maialino, says amaro that's been in the freezer yields a "creamier" texture, a “richer” mouthfeel, and a less boozy taste, making it easy to drink.
Holt got the idea for frozen amaro from Calabrian brand Gruppo Caffo's Vecchio Amaro del Capo, which states that its product “should always be served chilled.”
You can also take things a step further by making a frosé-style amaro slushie by blending amaro with crushed ice and whatever mixers you like.
