Amer Boudreau
Jamie Boudreau spent a lot of time developing a replacement for Amer Picon, a French liqueur no longer available in North America. We reduced the portions of each ingredient by a factor of 9 for those of you who would like to try it at home without the expense of producing 3 finished bottles. Check out this link to view Jamie’s recipe in its entirety.
