I might've used a bit too much absinthe but it was still great. I actually used Cockspur's falernum and it added a very interesting funkiness to it. Overall it's a fun cocktail which can be varied in a million different ways but the basic recipe still works. I'm not going to be making it often but for specific events and stuff I'll definitely be giving it a go.

There is no cinnamon in your recipe

High levels of effort, but has a great pay off. Tops.

Getting a good mix of rums is essential for this but hit the sweet spot and it really sings (as will you - heady stuff!)

I said u wouldn't blend any more drinks but i had to give my first zombie the benefit of the doubt, after-all is Don B and not trader Vic. L.O.L. ... okai jest aside great cocktail that can handle the ice ! cheers ;) ... Stiff drink, used RUMFIRE !

What's recommended for the "overproof aged rum?"

我也被这杯酒搞糊涂了 不同的水果香料 加上大量的朗姆混合酒 因为成本的问题 我总是无法把风味统一到一起 我想这应该是一种果味浓郁的料理

I'm confounded by the Zombie - I like tiki drinks, I like boozy drinks, I like all of the ingredients separately, but I really dislike how they come together in this cocktail. I've tried this recipe with pineapple juice, the original with cinnamon syrup, and either way I ended up with possibly the worst cocktail I've ever had. And that's compounded by this cocktail being quite the production to make. I feel like I'm missing something, or maybe the Zombie just doesn't work for my palate.

Made this again and it was great. However, we did use the Difford Smart Jigger for the measurements and it was so easy. I am in the States and paid for the postage to get these, and it was worth every penny. These jiggers are unbelievable.

You mention cinnamon spice in the review notes - where does that come from? I note that cinnamon syrup is common in other zombie recipes.

Outstanding. Heavy on the rum taste and very powerful. Has always been one of my favorites.

I have tried this at several establishments and their versions are rarely delicious.
