Each week La MaMa assembles a bunch of experimentalist dancers, performers, actors, media artists, musicians, and what have you, and sees what happens when they live stream.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  That favorite of favorites, the Corpse Reviver No. 2.  As I think we've discussed before, the big issue here is what to use to replace Kina Lillet, an ingredient that stopped being available some time ago.  Many recommend Kina Lillet's successor Lillet Blanc in this drink, but I myself far prefer Cocchi Americano for its slightly greater bite.  So:  rinse a chilled Martini glass or coupe with Absinthe.  Pour 3/4 oz. each of Gin, Cointreau or other Triple-Sec, Cocchi Americano, and lemon juice into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Shake.  Strain into the rinsed glass.
