The Hangover Cure is here!!
All right this week I’m featuring a personal favorite of mine; it is on our daytime cocktail list. The Corpse Reviver No. 2.5 has so much going for it; it’s tart, smooth, refreshing and just darn good. Everything in this cocktail can be purchased at a liquor store; so bonus points for making your life easy.
The Prep
Step 1: Chill your glass; for this cocktail i suggest a martini glass; but it’s your world babe, use whatever glass makes you happy.
Step 2: Cut some lemon wheels if you want to be fancy, you can use them as a garnish in the glass or when you build the batch leave it floating in your punch bowl.
The Ingredients (for a single cocktail)
1 oz Glendalough Rose Gin
1 oz Triple Sec
1 oz Lemon Juice
1 oz Lillete Rose
Splash Pernod Anise Liqueur
Batch It Babe (5 Cocktails)
5 oz Glendalough Rose Gin
5 oz Triple Sec
5 oz Lemon Juice
5 oz Lillete Rose
Splash Pernod Anise Liqueur per glass
How it’s done
Step 1: Add your splash of Pernod to your martini glass, swirl it and let it sit. (you will dump this out later, if you're like me and waste nothing, grab an extra glass to save the liqueur)
Step 2: Add ice to pint glass with gin, lillete, triple sec & lemon juice.
Step 3: Stir with a bar spoon (or whatever is handy)
Step 4: Dump out the pernod, the liqueur will coat the inside of the glass leaving a hint of anise.
Step 3: Strain ice and pour into a martini glass with your lemon wheel garnish
Pro Tip 1: If you don’t have a cocktail strainer, you can use another glass, or a mesh strainer in a pinch.
Pro Tip 2: If you are making a batch of this one have each person rinse their glass with the pernod before they add the cocktail.
Drink up Babes!!
