Preparation Steps
Prepare the Base
In a large saucepan, combine the Amaro Montenegro and water. Heat the mixture over low heat until warm, but do not allow it to boil.
Add Sugar
Slowly add the sugar to the warm mixture, stirring continuously until it fully dissolves.
Add Botanicals
Incorporate the gentian root, hibiscus flowers, sage leaves, and thyme leaves into the mixture. Stir thoroughly, ensuring all ingredients are submerged.
Simmer Mixture
Cover the saucepan and let the mixture simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together.
Cool and Strain
After simmering, remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool completely. Once cooled, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove solid ingredients.
Bottle the Amaro
Transfer the strained liquid into clean bottles and seal tightly. Store in a cool, dark place.
Serve
Serve chilled or over ice as an after-dinner digestif.
