Amaretto Sour Fizz

Don't you just love summer? When you come home after a long days work, fighting a traffic jam in the sweltering heat, a nice glass of something refreshing and lots of kisses from your dog would perk you right up. A splash of seltzer water gives extra something to traditional drinks like amaretto sour. Try to use fresh lemon juice and fresh OJ instead of sweet and sour mix if you can. Makes a big difference!
