Empress Gin Corpse Reviver Cocktail Recipe

Empress Gin Corpse Reviver Cocktail
A colorful, botanical twist on the classic Corpse Reviver No. 2 cocktail. This version uses Empress 1908 Gin for its vibrant hue and signature flavor, paired with citrus, Lillet Blanc, and orange liqueur. It’s refreshing, balanced, and always a conversation starter.
