Amaretto brilliantly enriches bourbon. I tried adding a couple of dashes of bitters but found myself preferring the simplicity of just the two ingredients
Wow! I really like Godfather, but didn't think that Bourbon would make that much a difference. I was wrong. Only had Maker's Mark at home but next time I'll try with a different one!
Adapted slightly with 2oz bourbon, 3/4 oz amaretto, 1/4 oz luxardo maraschino. It was really delicious! After a hard day at work I’m calling this “Screw the Boss” ;)
Instead of bourbon, decided to use a double barrel American Whiskey with the final aging in port casks. It was great. Very smooth with the hints of almond. Great as a night cap.
