Method

  1. 1

    Chill a coupe glass by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice and water.

  2. 2

    Rinse the chilled coupe lightly with absinthe by adding one dash, swirling to coat, and discarding any excess.

  3. 3

    Add gin, Cointreau, Lillet Blanc, and fresh lemon juice to a shaker filled with ice.

  4. 4

    Shake vigorously for about 10–15 seconds until well chilled and properly diluted.

  5. 5

    Fine strain the mixture into the absinthe-rinsed chilled coupe.

  6. 6

    Express an orange peel over the surface to release oils and drop the peel into the drink as garnish.

The Corpse Reviver No. 2 combines gin, orange liqueur, aromatized wine, lemon, and a restrained absinthe rinse.
