Godfather Ingredients


Godfather Instructions

The Godfather is a classic cocktail that combines the smoothness of whisky with the richness of amaretto. This cocktail is perfect for those who love bold flavors and a hint of sweetness. Whether you're hosting a cocktail party or simply want to enjoy a delicious drink at home, the Godfather is a great option to consider.

To make a Godfather, you'll need to fill a rocks glass with ice. Next, pour equal parts whisky and amaretto over the ice. Stir gently to combine the flavors. If you prefer a stronger drink, you can adjust the ratio of whisky to amaretto to suit your taste. Once the cocktail is well-mixed, garnish with a cherry or a twist of orange peel. Sip and enjoy!


Best served in a Beer Mug.
