The Bloody Corpse



This week back in 1667 the first successful human blood transfusion took place… which is not to say the ones that followed were successful. Listen to the wild and woolly story, then replace part of your bloodstream with this hangover cure - the mutant offspring of a Bloody Mary and a Corpse Reviver #2.

“Bloody Corpse,” as drawn by Mika Mas at the Experimental Cocktail Club in Paris.

In a shaker, muddle:

  • 1 slice blood orange
  • 1 dash absinthe

Then add:

  • 2/3 oz. lemon juice
  • 2/3 oz. red Lillet
  • 2/3 oz. Triple sec

Shake and transfer into martini glass. Serve with a shot of spicy tomato juice. Take a few healthy swigs (don’t be sheepish!) and feel it flood your veins. O, and B positive.
