📜 History
The Ferrari is known in bar culture as the bartender's handshake, a two-ingredient digestif made with equal parts Fernet-Branca and Campari. The combination is more than the sum of its parts: Campari tempers the intensity of the Fernet while Fernet rounds out the astringency of the Campari, resulting in something that is complex, bold, and surprisingly balanced. Its exact origin is unclear, but it gained widespread popularity in San Francisco bar culture and became one of the most celebrated two-ingredient digestifs in modern mixology.
