Sweet, toasty, and genuinely convincing as an amaretto replacement.
If any Lyre's product makes you forget you're drinking something alcohol-free, it's the Amaretti. Toasty vanilla, almond warmth, a sweetness that feels earned rather than artificial. The texture is slightly syrupy — 5g of sugar per ounce — which actually helps it behave more like a proper liqueur. Sip it after dinner or mix it into an Amaretto Sour and it'll surprise you. The sweetness is the one caveat — it's not a light drink. But as a direct replacement for amaretto in cocktails or as a standalone digestif, nothing in the nolo category comes close.
