It should be noted that the origins of this cocktail would appear to be somewhat fabled. I am happy with the premise that it is based on the movie of the same name with Disaronno being Marlon Brando's tipple of choice.

When it comes to the ratios i will leave this down to personal choice. I like the 1:1 whisky to amaretto mix whereas the Disaronno website recommends a 2:1 whisky to amaretto mix.
