Sounds great. I tried bourbon in an amaretto sour (a godfather sour?) last night, although the recipe I used still asked for a decent amount of syrup so I think it brought it back to a usual sweetness.

A place for conversation about cocktails, ingredients, home mixology, the bar industry or liquor industry, glassware - this is not an exhaustive list. If you think it's in some way related to cocktails it's probably fine.
If you post something you didn't create give credit whenever possible.
Pictures and recipes are encouraged when posting a drink as a standalone post. Example of an ideal drink post:

We love garnishes.
Remember the code of conduct, keep it nice. In terms of cocktails- specific etiquette that might be different from other communities:
Mentioning your blog, insta, website, book or bar is allowed, yes. For now at least, we do allow self-promotion. If it gets out of hand this might change.
A good post with a drink you don't like is still a good post! Try not to conflate the drink and the post or poster. If someone has a relevant title, gorgeous photo and clearly formatted recipe of what you consider a truly terrible drink, a comment is more appropriate than a downvote.
On that topic: Polite critique/reviews of drinks (or posts, images, etc.) is allowed here. Encouraged , even. It's a good tool for improving your drinks and content. Really, just be nice.

I actually flip the proportions and it still tastes mostly like amaretto!
I won't be buying the Adriatico until it is available closer, the two online places I found had $30-$40 shipping cost and none of the other items I can't get locally. Oh well.
It's for sale with a free shipping promo on the Adriatico website!
I made it! Did equal parts amaretto, lemon, bourbon and it's not sweet enough even for me. Honestly I would be happy to put it alone in little glasses for an after dinner sip, it's very, very good. But mixed I am less impressed with it so far, though it may be my expectation and usual tactics not working. If this doesn't put me under the table I'll try later with much less lemon and no egg white just bourbon, this amaretto, a little lemon, and maybe a lemon twist.
