Zombie Cocktail Recipe & Ingredients
Zombie
Tropical, fruity and rum-based, the Zombie is one of the original Tiki cocktails. It’s a delicious punch that comes from a man by the name of Don the Beachcomber, who created a new craze for carved mugs and hula fashion.
According to legend, the name comes from a patron who requested something to hide his hangover. Alas, the tropical flavour hid the beverage's high-alcohol content, and left the patron feeling like a "zombie".
