Chances are, you still feel full. Like you ate a balloon and someone keeps inflating it a little more every time you (rightfully) treat yourself to another turkey sandwich.
Allow us--or, rather, North Carolina chef Ashley Christensen's Fox Liquor Bar--to provide some relief. This cocktail contains ginger, which aids digestion, and Fernet, a strong, bitter alcoholic spirit that eases the discomfort caused by overindulging.
Makes 1
1/2 oz lime juice
3/4 oz Ginger Syrup
1/2 oz Fernet Branca
1 1/2 oz gin (Beefeater)
Candied ginger
Shake all ingredients and serve over ice. Garnish with candied ginger.
1 liter juiced ginger, room temperature
1 1/4 pound granulated sugar
Stir together the ingredients. "You have to stir a long time but it makes a delicious sweet ginger syrup with lots of heat."
