History

Rye and ginger liqueur provide spice, bourbon adds mellow backbone, while amaretto caresses the palate.

The Toasted Old Fashioned Godfather riff was first mixed in November 2021 by Linda Cooke, who called herself a Discerning Drinker. She suggested her creation doubles as a cold remedy, a claim that the author agrees with, noting it "tastes good".
