Happy Birthday Month to Amanda. As is the tradition, birthday month means you get to set the curriculum. This episode is dedicated to Edgar Allen Poe and The Tell-Tale Heart.
If you’d like to drink along:
A Corpse Reviver
Supposedly, this is to help with hangovers, but it’s pretty damn strong, y’all.
- 2 parts cognac (or regular brandy if you’re a Poe boy like us)
- 1 part apple brandy
- 1 part sweet vermouth
