The Godfather
The Godfather is a drink you can't refuse. With just two ingredients, it's a simple recipe. But it's one that's packs a punch in flavour. Sweet, almond flavoured Amaretto combines with spiced, nutty notes of scotch to create a sophisticated serve. Mix the two together and – badda-bing – you're in business.

Godfather cocktail variations
A classic Godfather cocktail is a simple mix of whisky and Amaretto. But if that isn’t quite up to scratch, or you feel like getting creative, then try your hand at one of these variations.
Swap Amaretto for cream to make a Godchild; a rich, dessert like twist. Try with The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve for a hit of fruity sweetness that compliments the nutty almond liquour. Create a smoky Godfather cocktail by replacing 7.5ml of whisky with peated scotch.
Other variations include a Godmother (made with vodka) and The Boss (made with bourbon).
