Corpse Reviver No 2
With just a rinse of Absinthe,
To underscore its flair,
There’s no pretense in its name,
It’s meant to raise your hair
The sweet essence of Cointreau,
Balanced by a Lillet wine,
Endorses juice of lemon,
By its own design
When added to the shaker,
Iced and ready to begin,
It’s time to add what’s crucial,
Your favorite old dry gin
Now shake till your bones rattle,
Whatever else you do
And you’ll not soon forget the
Corpse Reviver no. 2
10/16/17
The Corpse reviver No.2
was invented in the 1920's.
It was designed as a hangover cure!
