About a month late, I finally present my tiki drink cum Halloween-themed cocktail: The Elder Zombie. It may sound like a Magic card (Hey there, that's a challenge idea!), but it's actually a tasty beverage inspired by the classic Zombie, famous for having as much as three shots worth of booze in a proper pour.
The Elder Zombie
- 1/4 oz. lime juice
- 1/4 oz. grapefruit juice
- 1/4 oz. grenadine
- 1/4 oz. elderflower syrup
- 1 1/2 oz. rum, your favorite mix of light and dark.
- 1/4 oz. Campari
- Dash Angostura bitters
I have to say, I'm proud that after figuring out this recipe I ran into a lime/grapefruit/grenadine/elderflower cocktail from one of the big cocktail bars in New York (PDT? Death and Co.? I think one of those). It didn't go the same direction with the bitters and such, but nonetheless it makes me like my intuition is moving in the right direction.
