Godmother
Ingredientes
Instrucciones
Pour vodka and amaretto into an old-fashioned glass over ice and serve.
La Godmother es un cóctel de dos ingredientes que reemplaza el Scotch del clásico Godfather con vodka, combinándolo con amaretto sobre hielo en un vaso old-fashioned. El carácter neutro del vodka permite que los sabores dulces de almendra y albaricoque del amaretto sean la impresión dominante de la bebida. Es el hermano más suave y accesible del Godfather.
History & Origins
The Godmother was created as a direct variation of the Godfather, substituting vodka for Scotch to create a softer, more widely approachable version. Both drinks emerged around the early 1970s and became classic bar staples. The IBA lists the Godfather as a Contemporary Classic, and the Godmother is widely accepted as its established companion.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: clean vodka spirit with the sweet almond and apricot warmth of amaretto. Palate: smooth and sweet with the amaretto's marzipan-like flavor dominating, supported by the clean, neutral vodka base. Finish: gentle, warm, and sweet with lingering almond and a clean spirit fade.
Pro Tip
Serve in an old-fashioned glass over a large, clear ice cube rather than multiple cubes — the reduced surface area slows dilution and keeps the simple flavors balanced for longer.
