Corpse Reviver (A Gin Cocktail)

I had some wonderful Hendrick's gin cocktails when I was in England.  The thing about associating your national heritage with a particular type of liquor is that you can really explore that as a visitor.   For example, when you order a gin and tonic, the question is not just what gin you want but which tonic.  There are many of them and you may have a favorite amongst them.  Here is our first attempt to recapture some of that fun.
