			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Again, another classic cocktail offered up by Okanagan Spirits.</p>
<p>The Corpse Reviver was designed to do ‘exactly what it says’ – to revive the corpse.  A more contemporary term would be ‘hair of the dog’ – a drink to make you feel alive again after one too many the night before.  However we suggest this drink to raise your <strong><em>spirits</em></strong> during the evening of the Halloween weekend.</p>
<p>The Recipe:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Death in the Afternoon</strong> is a classic cocktail from the 1930s.  It was designed by Ernest Hemingway who named the drink after his book with the same title.  This Champagne and Absinthe cocktail was contributed to a book of celebrity recipes where Hemingway stated: &#8220;<em>Pour one jigger of Absinthe into a Champagne glass. Add chilled Champagne until it attains the proper opalescent milkiness. <strong>Drink three to five of these slowly</strong></em><strong>.</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>It is also rumoured that this was his favourite drink of all time and his consumption increased dramatically when he survived two successive plane crashes on trips to Africa.</p>
