The Zombie

[Dinerman]

It started with this tie:

The recipe calls for:
3/4 oz. lime juice
3/4 oz. pineapple juice
2 oz. Puerto Rico rum
1 oz. Jamaica rum
1/2 oz. Apricot liqueur
shake with cracked ice.
Serve un-strained.
Decorate with fruit, mint.

A trip to the liquor store later, we had a whole mess of Zombies, accurate to the vintage recipe from the tie.
Very tasty.

Looks like your tie has the power of suggestion. I like how your drink even matches the one on the tie

Now I feel like going to a bar and ordering a zombie. One of my favorite drinks.

None of my ties have drink recipes

Phineas,
You need new ties, or more drinks, or both....

 

[Phineas Lamour]

Both it is then.

Frightfully difficult finding pygmy mermaids small enough to garnish it correctly.

You should try them on a pizza.

I'd use Herbsaint Original in the recipe, never Pernod.

I recall being in Galveston, on the gulf and going to a great pool bar (right out of Dr. No) and having to tell the bartender how to make a Zombie... worlds collided that night.

Sashimi style!

Everybody should have a copy of at least one of the Bum's books in their bar. He's a master of cocktail archaeology and a really nice guy to boot.
