The EQ

1 1⁄2 oz Rye, Bulleit (Can sub high-proof bourbon and/or adjust to 1 oz for a lighter version)
2 t Fernet Branca (Adjust to taste)
1⁄2 oz Triple sec, Cointreau
1⁄2 oz Ginger liqueur, Canton
Instructions

Stir with ice; strain; rocks glass over a large cube.

Notes

Good as an aperitif due to high proof and bitter main profile, but also works as a late-night feet-up-by-the-fire libation. As the ice melts the triple sec and FB mellow to a coffee/caramel sweetness. Ginger packs the heat to battle winter chills and creates a tingly finish.

History

Created for a friend who needed (needed!) an easy big boy's version of Jack & Ginger.
