I actually kinda like fernet and Coke! Though possibly because I only really drank it in Bolivia, so there are some good memories attached to it. Not quite as nice as rum and Coke but better than bourbon and Coke for me. Cheers!🥃
I can understand enjoying it with Coke. I think drinking it straight likely ruined it for me, regardless of what it’s mixed with now. Ha, although I’ve reached a point in my life where any sugary drink will guarantee give me a massive headache the next day (alcohol or not), so I try to avoid Coke as a mixer in general.
Ha! That does not surprise me (with the hipster bar). In my opinion, if you drown it in Coke it’s not terrible (though Fernet on its own is beyond off-putting). For me I just don’t/can’t drink something with sugar in it. Instant headache.
Hi Greyson...man that sounds like a real taste treat there (read sarcasm...lol) ewwww......I can't stand anything that tastes like menthol......and judging by your reaction after sipping it.....I'd have to take a hard pass on that! lol. Sounds kind of like Coke and Vic's Nyquil...um um good....lol. I'll stick to Rum and Coke....Thanks for sharing!
Ohhh, Nyquil is a really good comparison. Fernet probably has a bit more earthy herb taste going on…but combine that with NyQuil and that’s pretty spot on.

Haha I’m the same with Coke — but more because of the caffeine than the sugar! Maybe our bodies are actually trying to protect themselves.
ahaha, if I don’t have caffeine by noon I start to get a headache. So, I’m officially addicted to caffeine.
I guess there could be worse things.
Lol. They serve it at a hipster-esque bar in Brooklyn. I actually kinda like it lol
