Corpse Reviver No. 2

A legendary pre-Prohibition classic from the Savoy Cocktail Book, widely considered the ultimate 'hair of the dog' remedy. This refreshing sour balances equal parts of gin, lemon, orange liqueur, and Lillet Blanc, all elevated by a subtle, aromatic absinthe rinse intended to 'revive the corpse' of the drinker.
