Amaretto Hop Fizz

Cocktail Description

The Amaretto Hop Fizz brilliantly marries the sweet almond notes of Italian liqueur with the bitter complexity of craft beer in one remarkably refreshing glass.

This unexpected cocktail combines Luxardo Amaretto's rich marzipan sweetness with the citrusy, piney bitterness of an IPA, while Coca-Cola adds familiar caramel notes and effervescence. The result is a surprisingly balanced drink with sweet almond upfront that gives way to hoppy bitterness and finishes with cola spice. Perfect for summer barbecues or as a conversation starter at casual get-togethers, this cocktail shines when paired with savory foods like pulled pork sandwiches or spicy chicken wings. The beauty of the Amaretto Hop Fizz lies in its simplicity—it requires no special tools or techniques, just a quick stir of ingredients over ice in a tall Collins glass, making it ideal for entertaining or when you want something unique without the fuss.
