laerm commented on 2/28/2020:

This is pretty good but, for some reason, it comes across like very fancy amaretto sour to me.

flickerdart commented on 2/22/2026:

Far too tart as written. Consider bumping up the Heering, or reducing the lemon, or both.

Fernet "Milkshake"

1 1⁄2 oz Fernet Branca
3⁄4 oz Coffee liqueur, St. George (NOLA)
1⁄2 oz Crème de Cacao, Tempus Fugit
1⁄4 oz Bitters, Scrappy's Chocolate
3⁄4 oz Egg white
1 oz Cream
Instructions

Whip shake all ingredients except cream with two cubes for approximately 30 seconds. Add cream, ice and shake again for approximately 15 seconds. Strain into either a coupe (the wash line will be right up to the lip on a 6 oz coupe) or a short Collins (< 10 oz) glass. I usually don't garnish, but you could do either some bittersweet chocolate gratings or a small pinch of espresso powder.

Notes

You could also go the flip route with this (replace the egg white and 1 oz cream with a whole egg and less cream). If you want something a bit sweeter, omit or reduce the chocolate bitters. Or swap out the Fernet Branca with Menta for a Grasshopper riff.

History

I've been making Fernet milkshakes for a few years using Fernet, espresso gelato, Guinness and chocolate syrup, and wanted to come up with a similar version that doesn't require ice cream, beer or a blender.

  • Cherry liqueur (I used Tattersall) brings out the plummy/pruny flavors of the Punt e Mes--reminded me of Pedro Ximenez sherry.
  • Delicious.

noksagt commented on 7/22/2018:

Is there a typo in calling for an Islay here? The source uses Balvenie Golden Cask (a Speyside) and I doubt peat is wanted in this one.

sevyryelsdorn commented on 7/23/2018:

I agree with the above comment about the Scotch - and took the above suggestion to use a Speyside. I used a Macallan 12 year, and I used my typical Picon substitute: 1/2 Torani and 1/2 CioCiaro. Used orange peel garnish. Comes together really, really well.

Zachary Pearson commented on 7/25/2018:

Curated this - OP cited a non smoky scotch at the link ;) Though I kinda want to try it with Uigeadail now. Thanks,  Zachary

Pangolindo commented on 7/30/2018:

Tried this one yesterday. Pretty good. Used a bad Cherry liqueur. It tasted very good nonetheless. Funny: I was searching on variations on the Blood and sand cocktail i thought to use the same ingredients ! But never tried it.   I am thinking in using Cherry juice or/ and maurin quina, and pierre Ferrand Curaçao.
