Little known in Australia, Fernet (pronounced fehr-NEHT)is a liqueur composed of some 40 herbs, including the currently popular St. John's wort. Often considered Italy’s greatest after-dinner drink Fernet also enjoys a reputation as one of the most effective hangover cures available. The health-enhancing properties of Fernet have made it the favoured "digestivo" at dinner tables across the world; traditionally served straight up at the end of a meal, it aids in digestion and cleanses the palate. This versatile liqueur can also be used to spike espresso to make the famous "caffè corretto" (literally, "spiked coffee") which is served all over the world. In recent years, as a new generation has discovered this invigorating liqueur, many have begun to serve it on the rocks, with cola, fruit juice, Grenadine, or just a splash of mineral water.
