Godfather

From The Bartender's Black Book, for About.com

Old-fashioned Glass

Glass Guide- Old-fashioned Glass

One could make the connection between The Godfather movies and this drink which uses the sweet Italian liqueur, amaretto, and the robust, hard flavors of a smooth Scotch. Appropriately, the Godmother is a little softer with vodka. I like this one because it is a slightly more complex Scotch on the rocks but it doesn't ruin or overpower the whisky.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz Scotch
  • 1/2 oz Amaretto

Preparation:

  1. Build the ingredients in an old-fashioned glass with ice cubes.
  2. Stir well.
