The Godmother, sometimes called a Goldeneye, is a lighter riff on the Godfather (which calls for scotch instead of vodka). It’s a simple, straightforward drink, delicious and easy to make.
The standard Godmother has no garnish, but we can’t resist the affinity between brandied cherries and Amaretto, so we always drop one or two in before serving. One of our users wrote in with a hot tip: try a squeeze of lemon right at the end to sharpen the sweetness (thanks, E.P.!)
