The Godfather cocktail is a strong duo-mixed cocktail made of smokey Scotch whisky and the almond flavours of Amaretto.The origin of the Godfather cocktail is uncertain. The drink appeared in 1972 before the release of the film of the same name by Francis Coppola. Some say that the mix of Amaretto and whiskey was much loved by Marlon Brando, who played the main character in the Godfather movie and gave rise to its name.
