Now this is a fun, stylish cocktail for Halloween parties. It pairs well in a dark cocktail menu with the Black Martini for a little scare with some class. The story of the Corpse Reviver is that of a drink "taken before 11 a.m., or whenever steam and energy are needed," according to The Savoy Cocktail Book (Harry Craddock, 1930).

  • 2 oz apple brandy
  • 3/4 oz brandy
  • 1/2 oz sweet vermouth
Preparation:
  1. Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice.
  2. Stir well.
