Artichoke amaro

Cynar, Carciofo

Italian amari can be made from just about anything you can imagine, but surely artichoke is among the strangest.

Surprisingly, neither Cynar nor Carciofo – the two most well-known brands of artichoke amaro – taste all that strongly of artichoke. Like all amari, there’s a couple dozen other herbs, spices, and roots rounding out the unusual flavor profile.
