An offer you can't refuse – Scotch and Amaretto in perfect harmony
🥃 Scotch WhiskyPopularized in the 1970s, the name references the iconic 1972 film. The Italian-Scottish combination mirrors the Italian-American themes of the movie.
Classic recipes use equal parts, but this can be too sweet. Modern bartenders often prefer 2:1 (Scotch to Amaretto) for better balance.
Godmother: Vodka instead of Scotch
Godchild: Add cream to either version
French Connection: Cognac instead of Scotch
A smooth blended Scotch works best – the almond sweetness of Amaretto complements malty, slightly sweet whiskies. Avoid peated Scotch here.
