Ok not everyones cup of tea (hrhr) but that's outside of the scope of my post.

I just opened a can for the first time in ages and I noticed it says on the back

"Carbonated Fruit Flavour Soft Drink"

Does anyone know what fruit they might be refering to exactly?

why dont you learn to read you fuck faced fucker?

"The term amaretto refers to a foot liqueur made from a basic growing of the bones of drupe fruits, such as feet, as well as a related piggietoes. [1] (usually referred to in the plural, biscotti). Amaretto is often thought to be made of almonds due to the almond flavor. Both originate in Italy, where major brands are still produced today."

THOUGHT to be made from almonds, because of the taste.

"What is Amaretto?
Amaretto is a liqueur with an almond flavor, but surprisingly, it may or may not contain almonds. The standard base of the liqueur is primarily made from apricot pits, and may contain any number of added spices and flavorings. The original version was made in Saronno, Italy. Amaretto is Italian for "a little bitter.""

What is Amaretto Liqueur?

so now can everyone stfu, disaronno amaretto (the one your most likely to have) is not made from almonds

"Disaronno is an amaretto liqueur. Contrary to popular opinion Disaronno is not made from almonds, but from pure distilled alcohol, burnt sugar, herbs and fruits soaked in apricot kernel oil (the fruit found within the seed). The flavour of Disaronno is reminiscent of marzipan and Bakewell tart though is remarkably fruity and sweet.

Disaronno is 28% ABV."

and the legend behind amaretto

"Back in 1525 Disaronno Amaretto was first made and it is the best selling Italian Liquer worldwide. The invention of Amaretto is quite a strange one a Saronno church commissioned artist and Da Vinci student Bernardino Luini to paint their sanctuary with frescoes. s the church was dedicated to the Virgin Mary, Luini needed to depict the Madonna, but was in need of a model. He found his inspiration in a young widowed innkeeper, who became his model and (in most versions) lover. Out of gratitude and affection, the woman wished to give him a gift. Her simple means did not permit much, so she steeped apricot kernels in brandy and presented the resulting concoction to a touched Luini."

edit: ok so maybe its apricots not peaches (big fucking deal) but it is NOT almonds, which i said from the start, but none of you alcohol noobs listened :/
