Have previously tried this with Fernet del Frate Angelico and was very impressed.
This time I used Asperley Bros Britannica Fernet ( cacao & deep liquorice flavours) and this is now one of my 5*+ repeat drinks.
If you didn't like cough medicine as a child then not may be not for you though!

Really enjoyed. Next time I would reduce the sugar syrup to 1/4 oz.

Really pleased to see this included here - a fantastic drink. I can’t say I’m the biggest fan of Fernet Branca but this combination is the best kind of alchemy. Personally I’d put a little less sugar but that’s just my palate.

Branca Menta, which I used the first time I tried this months ago (on an equal-parts recipe), is certainly over-the-top and made this too sweet, but I saw its potential... Cut to today, I cut the Chartreuse 1:1 with Dolin Genepy and, despite the reduced measure of syrup and addition of egg white, this isn't that far off from with what I was initiated... I would agree though, a fantastic drink.

I'm a big fan of Fernet Branca and I have been looking for other ways to drink it (other than as a ferrari as a digestif with equal parts campari). This is perfect and close to my other favourite the Last Word. Agreed that maybe the sugar could be dialled down. Tempted to sub Maraschino in to see how it fares
