Amaretto sours! I used to like those, too, and forget all about them! I've only drunk wine lately, and that not too often.

I have to rest now after reading your post.

Making the amaretto sours is pretty easy. I just take a small glass, 1/2 fill with ice, a small bit of water, then fill with amaretto 1/2 way to 2/3 way full (depending on taste). Then I use whiskey sour mix and add a little of cherry juice and garnish with a cherry. It took me a few tries to get the taste I wanted, but now I like my homemade ones better than restaurants.
