The Corpse Reviver No. 1 is a drink from the 1800’s and the precursor to the more popular Corpse Reviver No. 2. It’s name refers to being a hangover cure. Bartender Harry Cradock recommended that the drink be consumed at 11 a.m. and will give you the energy to get through the rest of your day. It doesn’t actually work because there is no caffeine (or cocaine) in it to actually give you energy.
