Amarettos are pretty good. But I'm partial to that almond extract/poppy seed muffin type of taste.

Drambuei is pretty interesting though. Maybe worth a try.

Kind of hard to explain, nothing really tastes like it to me. The best I can do is that it tastes like what it smells like when you open a spice drawer, a mix of sweet and savoy herbs/spices. Also, It makes some really interesting cocktails.

Which one tastes best when you fucking vomit up that nasty sugar shit?

Disaronno gets my vote so far. I had no problem with it last time I puked it up in a parking lot after some barflies a few.

Frangelico is also really nice on the side with espresso.
Kahlúa was my 'baby's first' liqueur. I still love it as a comfort drink, but would prefer the first two.
There was also an amazing Portuguese liqueur I had once...sadly I don't remember the name.

I love Amarettos, but if I drink it too fast it fucks my stomach up.

When I don't drink it straight, I like to mix it with coke to make cherry flavoured cola.

>> No.5251466

I'm a big fan of creme de menthe, but also rather partial to spiced rum. Spiced rum is absolutely delicious with a mixer like Coke or lemonade. Tastes like Christmas.

Creme de menthe works best neat, unless you're making a Grasshopper or something.

Also, since this is /ck/ I would strongly recommend investing in a decent alcohol that you can integrate into recipes and the like. I like using amaretto whenever I make things like cakes, so buying a bottle is a worthwhile investment for me.

OP I'm going to give you my favorite shot recipe. It's called a Superman after the ice cream in the upper midwest. They kind of remind some of a pistachio flavor.

Mix equal parts Disaronno (or any nice amaretto), Bailey's (or any Irish Cream), and Blue Curacao in a shaker with ice. Pour in big shot glasses.
