The mixture

This is how the tap works

  1. 1

    Pre-chill ingredients

    Place the Amaretto, Bourbon, sugar syrup and still water in the refrigerator beforehand so that your drink is immediately at the perfect temperature.
  2. 2

    Prepare lemon juice

    Squeeze the fresh lemons and pour the juice through a fine sieve to completely remove pulp and protect the keg valve.
  3. 3

    Fill keg

    Pour the Amaretto, Bourbon, strained lemon juice, sugar syrup and still water directly into your 2.0-liter keg.
  4. 4

    Charge with nitrogen

    Carefully seal the keg and screw in an N2 or N2O capsule to create the typical, micro-fine Nitro texture.
    WINKY Hack: After inserting the capsule, shake the keg vigorously for about ten seconds to ensure the nitrogen binds ideally in the drink.
  5. 5

    Creamy dispensing

    Hold the glass at a slight angle under the tap and let the velvety sour flow in until the dense foam forms.
    WINKY Hack: Garnish the drink in the glass with a dried orange slice and a pickled cocktail cherry.

About this drink

Experience this beloved bar classic in a way that will wow your friends. The delicate sweetness of Italian almond liqueurs blends harmoniously with the woody vanilla notes of a robust bourbon, while sun-ripened lemons provide an invigorating burst of freshness. The interplay of elegant sweetness and distinctive acidity makes this drink a timeless favorite for long, convivial evenings.

By dispensing with nitrogen, the cocktail transforms into a velvety mouthfeel, crowned with a dense, finely pored foam, just like from a high-end bar. In your double-walled stainless steel keg, the mix stays perfectly chilled for hours, ensuring every guest always has a perfectly chilled sour in their glass.
