Shake Batavia Arrack, Fernet Branca, Green Chartreuse, Cinnamon Syrup with ice. Strain into a coupe.

Joshua Norton, who later crowned himself Emperor Norton of the United States and Protector of Mexico, was a 19th-century San Francisco character cherished for his eccentricity and charm. To celebrate this self-proclaimed ruler’s whimsical reign, I created a cocktail that mirrors his flamboyant style and grandeur. The drink features Fernet Branca, a local amaro beloved by Norton's loyal subjects in the city he ruled over with such flair.
