Head to head
Fernandito and Garibaldi side by side: what changes in the recipe, the balance, the strength and the calories.
The difference, by the numbers
They have no ingredient in common: the Fernandito has Fernet-Branca and cola, the Garibaldi Campari and orange juice. In parts, a Fernandito is 1 Fernet and 2½ cola; a Garibaldi is 1 Campari and 2¾ orange. By volume, the Fernandito is 71% mixer and juice and 29% fortified wine and bitter; the Garibaldi is 73% mixer and juice and 27% fortified wine and bitter. Different bottles, similar balance: that makes them close cousins on the ratio map.

The Fernandito has more calories (about 170 against 160), but the Garibaldi has more sugar (21.4 g against 14.9 g). Both are built; the Fernandito is served in a rocks glass, the Garibaldi in a highball.
