Corpse Reviver?
The Corpse Reviver is known as a “Pick Me Up” cocktail and was often consumed to “Cure” a hangover. This cocktail was prescribed by bartenders to revive the soul of the guest after over indulging the night before. The old ‘hair of the dog that bit ya” mentality.
This Corpse Reviver #1 & #2 first appeared in Harry Craddock’s 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book.
The Corpse Reviver No 1 is comprised of equal parts:
- Calavdos: an apple or pear brandy made in France.
- Cognac: French brandy made from grapes in the Cognac Region
- Sweet Vermouth
Harry prescribed the Corpse Reviver #1 in his book as, “To be taken before 11 a.m., or whenever steam and energy are needed.” The Corpse Reviver #2 also has specific dosing recommendations from Harry, “Four of these taken in swift succession will unrevive the corpse again.”

What is Bénédictine?
Bénédictine is a French herbal liqueur that’s made with a secret recipe of 27 herbs, spices, flowers, berries, and roots. Originally used to revive tired Benedictine monks beginning in 1510, the term D.O.M. found on the label stands for Deo Optimo Maximo which translates to “God, most good, most great” reminds us of the liqueur’s origins
