Godfather Cocktail
Stir home-made peach noyau into scotch to make this classic Godfather cocktail.
Once you make your own amaretto from fresh summertime peaches, you’ll never go back to the store-bought stuff.
Ingredients
- 60 noyaux
- 4 cups of brandy, Applejack or bourbon
Preparation
Heat oven to 300 degrees. Spread noyaux on a baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes. Allow to cool and repeat the roasting process, toasting again for 10 minutes, until all the noyaux is double-roasted.
Place noyaux and brandy in a quart jar, seal and let macerate for four months, shaking occasionally.
After four months, strain out the noyaux and sweeten to taste.
