Maria from Penrose in Kuala Lumpur makes the classic Corpse Reviver No. 1 – while not as popular as its cousin the No. 2, this cognac version is a more sophisticated cocktail with a rich finish. The original recipe calls for calvados or apple brandy, but Maria swaps it with Creme de Mure instead for a fruitier flavor. She also adds orange bitters and saline to the final version.
Ingredients:
40ml Cognac
20ml Crème de mûre
25ml Sweet vermouth
5ml PX (Pedro Ximenez) sweet sherry
4 dashes Orange bitters
2 drops Saline
Method:
Add all ingredients into a mixing glass with ice and stir until desired dilution is achieved. Strain into a chilled coupe glass.
