Amaro Whip Cocktail
The Bitter-Sweet Indulgence You Didn’t Know You Needed
Inspired by the Italian affogato — that perfect collision of bitter espresso and soft cream — the Amaro Whip takes the same idea and gives it a grown-up, non-alcoholic twist.
It’s rich, aromatic, and a little dramatic — a one-minute dessert-meets-cocktail moment built around The Pathfinder Hemp & Root Amaro.
Amaro Whip Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz The Pathfinder Amaro
- Whipped cream (fresh or canned — your call)
- 1 Amarena cherry + a touch of its syrup
- Fresh orange zest
Method:
- Pour The Pathfinder over ice in a short glass.
- Add a generous cloud of whipped cream on top.
- Drop in an Amarena cherry with a drizzle of its syrup.
- Finish with a zest of fresh orange over the glass — the oils brighten the bitter botanicals underneath.
Serve immediately. Stir it just enough to blur the line between bitter and sweet.
Why We Love It
The Amaro Whip is pure contrast — herbal and creamy, smoky and citrusy, old-world and modern.
The Pathfinder brings all the complexity of an Italian amaro — think dark caramel, gentian root, clove, and orange peel — but without the alcohol. The whipped cream softens the edges, while the cherry and zest add just enough theatre to make it a moment.
It’s decadent, quick, and completely unexpected — perfect for a nightcap, dinner party finale, or the moment you want to impress with zero effort.
Fizz Tip
Level it up with vanilla-infused whipped cream or a pinch of smoked sea salt for a twist that plays beautifully against Pathfinder’s herbal bite.
