Fernet con Coca

Argentina

Fernet con Coca: Argentina's improbable national cocktail — Italy's bitter Fernet-Branca drowned in Coca-Cola over ice, drunk by the litre at every asado and birthday.

What it is

Fernet con Coca: Argentina's improbable national cocktail — Italy's bitter Fernet-Branca drowned in Coca-Cola over ice, drunk by the litre at every asado and birthday. Origins: Italian immigrants brought fernet in the 1800s; Córdoba's students and workers mixed it with Coke in the late 20th century and a cult was born. Made from: Fernet-Branca (27 herbs and spices, aged in oak) and Coca-Cola. How it's made: 1) Fill a glass with ice. 2) Pour fernet and Coke roughly 30:70 (the ratio is personal law). 3) Let the foam crown rise. Served: in tall glasses, refilled all night; Argentina consumes the majority of the world's fernet. Flavor: bitter herbs under cola sweetness — minty, medicinal, addictive. Strength: about 10-12% as served. Culture: 'un fernet' needs no surname in Argentina; Córdoba is its capital of devotion. See also: Malbec, Clericó.
