22. Baracca’s Cocktail
My interpretation:
0.75 oz Fernet Branca (US)
2.25 oz Martini & Rossi Rosso Sweet Vermouth
Fill mixing-glass with ice, stir mixture, strain, and serve. Garnish with lemon rind. As an aperitif, serve in lowball or small goblet without garnish. This drink is mentioned by David Wondrich as one of those which were improvised when the familiar Italian ingredients were lacking. Technically the drink name should have an apostrophe, unless it means more than one of the family. The restaurant belonged to a Victor Baracca.
