Small macaroon flavoured with almonds (7)
I believe the answer is:
ratafia
(Other definitions for ratafia that I've seen before include "Almond biscuit/liqueur" , "Kind of liqueur" , "Brandy liqueur with almonds or peach, apricot or cherry kernels" , "Almond liqueur, biscuit" , "Almond flavouring essence" .)
