2 oz Rye (Rittenhouse or other higher proof rye)
1/4 oz Fernet Branca
1/4 oz simple syrup
2 dashes Angostura
Warning: Some drinks are more forgiving than others and allow for reckless measuring. This is not such a drink. A dash too much Fernet and this drink is ruined.
Combine ingredients in an ice-filled glass and stir for 20-30 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass. Some use an orange peel as a garnish (others even flame it), but I don't think a garnish necessary. Those new to Fernet, however, may enjoy the additional familiar flavor.
Enjoy.
