Haus Alpenz, they have a product that’s sort of a modern remake of Swedish Punsch that I think they worked with, I want to say Wondrich on? But I’m not so sure. H: It can be made from an assortment of different base spirits, either arak or rum mixed with spices and arak tea, which is lemon juice, and yeah. There were later recipes published in a few books that actually used Swedish Punsch in place of Kina Lillet, which is fascinating. I think that as far as I can tell, the “Savoy Cocktail Book” was the earliest publishing that we can find of this specific recipe for the Corpse Reviver No. H: Well, so I mean, in terms of the history, I mean it’s interesting. T: So you want to chat a little bit more about that history there? We have Harry Craddock’s book, but are there any other notable points in history where this cocktail appears, and then what about modern day, even up to 2022? Fundamental formula for tons of modern classics. Who knows? We don’t need to get into that, but great formula. But yeah, it’s that classic formula we’re seeing again. It follows that, and I don’t know how we didn’t mention this in the Last Word recipe, in the Last Word episode. So as published in the “Savoy Cocktail Book,” I believe Harry Craddock’s recipe was equal parts dry gin, Cointreau, Kina Lillet, and lemon juice, with an additional dash of absinthe. Before we do that, for anyone unfamiliar, can you briefly outline the ingredients that are in this drink that we’re exploring today? So, I don’t know whether eight takes you too far, but keeping it on track there. And he also famously cautioned, four of these taken in swift succession will quickly un-revive the corpse again. But I think the recipe first appears in the classic “ Savoy Cocktail Book.” Harry Craddock, who notes on this drink to be taken before 11 a.m., or whenever steam and energy are needed. And I ask you those two questions in the beginning here, only because, and I’m sure we’ll get into this. There’s no doctors here, but we will be chatting doctors, because they’re an integral part of the history of this drink. So I’m always like, “Oh, should I say 10? Or should I say five?” The History of the Corpse Reviver No.
Whenever you talk to your doctor, however many drinks you say you have in a week, they’re supposed to double it? H: I think they say you’re supposed to, I don’t know. Probably somewhere in the realm of eight to 10? Is that too much?
Definitely enough to need my corpse revived. What is the most amount of Corpse Reviver No. H: My corpse was certainly revived this morning. H: Oftentimes, with my late-night schedule working at Lullaby and everything, earlier than I tend to get up.
So that was probably about, I don’t know, 10:30 in the morning? I think, actually, today might have been the earliest that I had one, just because I was trying to solidify my recipe, make sure that everything was still the way that I liked it. What’s the earliest you’ve ever had a Corpse Reviver No. I’ve got two questions off the bat for you. T: Looking forward to getting into the Corpse Reviver No. T: Pleasure to have you here in VinePair’s studio and the “Cocktail College,” the home of “Cocktail College.” Harrison Snow: Thank you so much for having me, Tim.
