The Zombie (Classic tiki cocktail)

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Drinks
Donn Beach's 1934 masterpiece reflects a 'functional' approach to cocktail making: how to hide an extreme amount of alcohol (3-4 types of rum) so the drink remains palatable? The answer is the 'trinity': acid (lime and grapefruit), sugar (syrups), and spice (bitters, absinthe). The role of ice here is critical: dilution is not a mistake but part of the recipe – water opens up the aromas and makes this 'liquid dynamite' drinkable.

  • Tiki mug or highball glass

Allergen Information

⚠️ Nuts (Almond in Falernum)

Instructions

1 ✓

Measure all liquid ingredients into the shaker.

Tip: Precision is vital here. Due to the many ingredients, if you just pour by eye, the balance will be upset and it will be an undrinkable mess.
2 ✓

Add a large handful of ice cubes to the shaker and close it.

Tip: Always use hard ice cubes for shaking, not crushed, because crushed ice melts too fast during shaking.
3 ✓

Shake with brutal force for 10-15 seconds.

Tip: The goal is rapid cooling and aeration. It's ready when your hand almost freezes to the metal shaker.
4 ✓

Fill the glass with fresh crushed ice.

Tip: The huge surface area of crushed ice keeps the drink extremely cold, which dulls the perception of alcohol.
5 ✓

Strain the drink onto the ice.

Tip: The strainer holds back the 'tired' ice you shook with.
6 ✓

Take the mint sprig and slap it hard against your palm before placing it in the glass.

Tip: The physical shock breaks the oil capsules in the leaves. So when you take a sip, your nose is flooded with mint scent, freshening the experience.

Recipe FAQ

Why use Overproof rum?
The high (around 75%) alcohol content 'cuts through' the many juices and sugar, ensuring a dry finish.
I don't have Falernum, what should I do?
Make a quick 'mock' Falernum: soak grated ginger, lime zest, cloves and a drop of almond extract in sugar syrup.
