Place 1 cup Amaretto into a medium sauce pan. Bring to a boil. Allow to simmer till reduced by half. Cool to room temperature. Store in air tight containers
Fresh Berries
Step 2
In a small bowl add fresh berries, sugar, and Amaretto Syrup. Gently stir and allow to macerate while preparing French toast.
Fresh Amaretto Cream
