"node -v" shows wrong version after "brew upgrade node"

Question

I upgraded my version of Node.js with brew upgrade node which installed v5.3.0. But when I get the version of node with node -v it shows v0.10.29.

I tried brew link --overwrite node but that didn't work.

Brew has node linked to /usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.29 so I went there and noticed that there are other versions of node including the version I want in /usr/local/Cellar/node/.

How do I tell brew to link node to /usr/local/Cellar/node/5.3.0 ?

Try to brew link --override node
