The Godmother is a simple yet delightful cocktail made by combining smooth vodka with the sweet, nutty flavor of amaretto.
It offers a clean and crisp base from the vodka, enriched by the soft almond sweetness of the amaretto, creating a balanced and mellow drink.
With an alcohol content of around 28โ30%, it is relatively strong but easy to prepare by pouring directly over ice.
It emerged in the United States during the 1970s, alongside the French Connection cocktail, and remains a favorite for those who appreciate a straightforward yet flavorful drink.
If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can adjust the vodka-to-amaretto ratio to 1:1.
- 1. Fill an on-the-rocks glass with ice.
- 2. Pour 45ml vodka and 15ml amaretto.
- 3. Stir gently to combine smoothly.
Tip For a sweeter profile, adjust the vodka-to-amaretto ratio to 1:1.
