OLIVE GARDEN ITALIAN MARGARITA
This is like a traditional Mexican margarita, except there’s a shot of amaretto served on the side for added pleasure. Also, the rim of the glass on the real thing is dipped in green sugar crystals usually used for cake decorating. Looks nice. But it’s an optional garnish that’s skipped if you don’t have any green sugar crystals lying around. And, quite frankly, who does?

4 ounces (½ cup) sweet & sour
mix (from page 231)
1¼ ounces amaretto liqueur

OLIVE GARDEN VENETIAN SUNSET
This is a great way to use up the sweet sparkling wine sitting on the shelf, and it’s better than a mimosa. Olive Garden uses Martini & Rossi Asti, but you can use whatever you want.
