Midnight Reviver #2

1 oz Bourbon
3⁄4 oz Fernet Branca
3⁄4 oz Ginger syrup
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 lf Mint
Instructions

Run leaf along the inside of the serving glass to express oils. Shake, strain, up, float leaf.

Notes

You want a strong, spicy ginger syrup or liqueur—something milder like Canton will get drowned out by all the other big flavors.

  • Delicious. I really like that the Fernet doesn't take over but is definitely present. My wife gives it a 2 and she hates Fernet, if that says anything. — ★★★★
  • I wasn't expecting this to be so good. Delicious. Industry Sour-like, but the bourbon kinda mellows it out a bit and the ginger plays nice.
