I didn't expect the grenadine to be as impactful as it was. An interesting take on the more traditional martini. It's a neat twist that I'll bring out from time to time, especially when I've got guests that shy from the more normal martini taste.
I've never been a fan of the Godfather due to the scotch but this simple replacement has proven to be a strong favorite for after-dinner cocktails. I round up my proportions to a full 2oz of cognac and 1oz of amaretto and though it's very sweet with the amaretto, I find the cognac has room to tickle the palate. Great cocktail for company who aren't into stronger liquor!
