If your godmother is Russian or Italian, then this is a good comfort drink for you. Actually, it is an offshoot of the
Godfather, which is a scotch and amaretto cocktail of larger proportions. With that one, amaretto softens and sweetens the scotch. For this cocktail, the amaretto is the expensive ingredient and it is blended down by a larger component of vodka.
It's a great holiday drink that's rich and tastes like amaretto cookies and nothing else. I used Stolichnaya vodka, which is very pleasant and mild. The whole effect is like sipping marzipan.
- 2 oz. vodka (Stolichnaya used)
- 1 oz. amaretto (Lazzaroni used)
Build drink in an Old Fashioned glass full of ice and stir well.
