How to make a Corpse Reviver #2 in POV.

The Corpse Reviver #2 is one of the most famous classic hangover-style cocktails from the Savoy era. It was documented by Harry Craddock in The Savoy Cocktail Book in 1930 at the American Bar in London, though the drink itself belongs to the earlier “corpse reviver” family created as sharp, bracing morning pick-me-ups.

Recipe:
3/4 oz gin
3/4 oz Cointreau
3/4 oz Lillet Blanc
3/4 oz fresh lemon juice
Absinthe rinse

Rinse a chilled coupe with absinthe, discard the excess, then shake all remaining ingredients with ice and strain into the glass.

Why the POV format works so well for this cocktail:
POV shows the real rhythm of the build from the bartender’s perspective — the rinse, the equal-parts structure, the shake, and the final strain. It makes the recipe easier to memorize, helps you see the workflow clearly, and gives a more realistic behind-the-bar feel than a standard front-facing video.
