The Godmother is the elegant sister of the Godfather: just two ingredients, vodka and amaretto, over ice. The nutty-sweet almond flavor makes it the perfect after-dinner drink, mixed in seconds.
Instructions
- Fill a tumbler with ice cubes.
- Pour the vodka over the ice.
- Add the amaretto.
- Stir briefly with a bar spoon and serve.
Garnish: None
Pro tip: Use a high-quality amaretto, as it defines the aroma of the drink. If you prefer it less sweet, reduce the amaretto to 3 cl.

Which amaretto is best?
Classically Disaronno is used, but any good almond amaretto suits the Godmother.
Can I serve the Godmother without ice?
It is possible, but traditionally it is served on the rocks over ice in a tumbler.
