Corpse Reviver No. 2
Friday, April 28, 2023
The are actually two cocktails with the name of Corpse Reviver - the first made with brandy and the second with gin. Both are designed as “hair of the dog” cocktails. Many people find that the gin version is more interesting, because it is a wonderfully designed layer of flavors that showcases gin's versatility. This recipe mixes gin with Lillet Blanc, lime, orange liqueur, and a dash of absinthe. It very well could be the last ingredient that gave this classic its resurrecting name.
Ingredients
1 dash Absinthe
1 oz. dry gin
1 oz. Lillet Blanc
1 oz. Cointreau
1 oz. fresh lemon juice
orange twist
Instructions
Rinse a chilled cocktail glass with the absinthe and toss the excess.
Add the gin, Lillet Blanc, Cointreau and lemon juice into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Shake well and then strain into the cocktail glass.
Garnish with orange twist.
