Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Simple Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine equal parts sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved. Allow it to cool before using.

  2. 2

    Juice the Lemon

    Cut the lemon in half and use a citrus juicer to extract 0.5 oz of fresh lemon juice. Strain to remove any seeds or pulp.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, pour the 2 oz of Fernet, 0.5 oz of simple syrup, and 0.5 oz of lemon juice.

  2. 4

    Shake and Strain

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Add Garnish

    Gently slap the fresh mint leaves between your hands to release their aroma, then drop them into the glass. Finally, twist a lemon peel over the drink to release the oils and place it into the cocktail as a garnish.
