Alpino Sour

A fall favorite in the tasting room for several years, the Alpino Sour is a PostModern riff on the Amaro Sour from Brad Thomas Parsons book: Amaro. The whiskey barrel rested Amaro Alpino makes the perfect backbone for this cocktail with its interesting blend of gentian bittered botanicals and molasses & vanilla finish. Instead of egg whites, we make this with Instafoam vegan egg white replacement to create a silky-smooth texture.
