  • To much Fernet — ★★
  • A black layer of fernet floats ontop of the daiquiri, hitting hard with menthol, with a hint of marachino. Very tasty, but not a crowd pleaser, the last half the drink is amazing.
  • Sip one: The Fernet is too strong in this. Sip two to end: This is just right, actually. — ★★★★

Comments

I like the way the Fernet Branca mixes with the grapefruit and Maraschino. I started with half the amount called for, thinking it might take over, but the full quantity makes for a much more interesting drink.


Extremely good! I've been looking for a great recipe with a heavy amount of Fernet Branca. Never been so happy to be wrong, because I thought it'd be terrible. If I were to make it for anyone who isn't a cocktail fanatic I would only put a splash of Fernet Branca.
