- Oil from an Expressed Orange Peel
Garnish
- 2 Lemon Wheel Garnish

Instructions
Prepare the Glass:
- Fill a Burgundy wine glass halfway with cracked ice. The cracked ice helps to chill the drink quickly and evenly.
Combine the Ingredients:
- Add 1 oz of Blaum Bros. Oak Reserve gin, 1/2 oz of Fernet-Branca liqueur, and 1/2 oz of Carpano Antica Formula vermouth to the glass. These ingredients provide a rich and aromatic base for the cocktail.
Top with Tonic Water:
- Top off the mixture with 3/4 bottle of Fever-Tree Indian tonic water. The tonic water adds a refreshing and effervescent element to the drink.
Garnish:
- Garnish with 2 dehydrated (or fresh) lemon wheels, 1 cinnamon stick, and 4 star anise pods. These garnishes add visual appeal and enhance the drink’s aromatic profile.
Express Orange Peel:
- Express the oil from an orange peel over the top of the drink. This step releases the citrus oils, adding a fresh and fragrant touch to the cocktail.
Serve:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your M Gin & Tonic.
