As a former bartender (master of mixology, naturally), I have a few custom drink concoctions. Once you get a feel for how liquors & flavors blend, it's not too difficult to create new mixes for a patron who wants you to surprise them because they don't know what to order (usually women).
I've been told I make the best chocolate martinis. And that's true! Several years and much experimentation has lead to the perfect blend of flavor, that goes down smoothly. A delicious dessert martini.
This is not that recipe.
THE GODSON
A "Godfather" is scotch & amaretto. This is a sweeter version, almost like a jocular, kiddie version of the original. And so I named it after the movie The Godson, a Rodney Dangerfield parody of The Godfather. This is for people who like a bit of whiskey/bourbon, but also want something very sweet. I've had waitresses tell me it smells like gasoline; it doesn't, but I've since thought of calling it such.
Ingredients:
1 oz Southern Comfort
1 oz Amaretto
Preparation:
1. Build ingredients over ice in an old-fashioned (rocks) glass.
2. Stir well
3. Serve with a swizzle stick, so the consumer can stir frequently to keep the mix even and cold.
Can be garnished with a cherry.
