The Godfather
Continuing our tour of Amaretto cocktails, the Oscars forced our hand and had no choice but to make the classic, The Godfather. Follow us and check back tomorrow for the next Amaretto cocktail in our series.
While some people prefer to make this cocktail with equal parts Scotch and Amaretto, I prefer 2oz Scotch to .5oz Amaretto. You still get the deep smokey and peaty flavors Scotch fans cant get enough of but with a nice subtle rounding of flavors with the nutty and sweet Amaretto.
I chose the Triple Wood by @laphroaig for the heavy smoke flavors and @oakcityamarettoco.
What was your beverage of choice while watching the Oscar's?
The Elements:
2oz Scotch Whisky
.5oz Amaretto
