American Bartenders School shows how to make a God Mother mixed drink cocktail recipe

Transcript

The drink that I am going to make now is called a Godmother. All right, so if you like a drink that has vodka and a little almond taste, this is what a Godmother is. We are going to take a rock glass which is a short stable glass, fill it up with ice. An ounce and a half of our vodka and right here, I am using sky vodka which is a nice vodka. Let us just fill it up. There we have an ounce and a half. Then once again, what we are going to use is our Amaretto, this particular brand comes from Italy but there is a lot of different almond tasting liqueurs. That is what the basic taste of Amaretto is and we are going to pour a half ounce. There we are half ounce of our Amaretto. Last on top of our vodka and the reason why we pour Amaretto last is because Amaretto has sugar in it. It is a sweetened liqueur. And by pouring it last, the almond flavor is on top and then it gently floats down and mixes with the vodka. Whereas if we put the Amaretto first and the vodka on top, when you drink the drink you would almost taste straight vodka and somebody who likes to drink like this does not like a real strong tasting drink. And then what we are going to do is put a couple of short sticks in here. These are called sip sticks and this allows whoever is drinking this drink to kind of stir it up like that. So, this is a Godmother. Enjoy it!
