Can you have Halloween cocktails and not include the Zombie? I'm pretty sure that's against the rules. Somewhere.
These are, in a word, delicious. In another word, tangy. In a third word (or two), potential lethal.
As a side note: I'd never tasted passion fruit syrup before. It is like a curious combination of pineapple, orange, and mango on the tongue. Quite good.
We now return to the Zombie ... it never does to take one's eyes off of a zombie for too long, after all.
Do not overindulge. Or you will become that thing we all dread. A zombie.
But one Zombie won't hurt. At least we all came out alive. And since we were testing these while watching last weekend's Cowboys game, we needed something to dull the pain.
Zombie
1 tsp. Brown Sugar
1 oz. Lemon Juice
1 oz. Lime Juice
1 oz. Pineapple Juice
1 oz. Passion Fruit Syrup
1 dash Angostura Bitters
1 oz. Gold Rum
1 oz. 151-proof Rum
1 oz. White Rum
Dissolve brown sugar in juices. Combine all ingredients, shake with ice, and pour into chilled Collins glass. Garnish with a mint sprig.

As you know, I've long been a fan of the bright blue, pre-mixed Zombie that can be found at various establishments, but this sounds way better (partially because I like almost anything with pineapple juice in it). I can't wait to try one!
