Well, I must be doing something right for my clients. I just had one of mine give me this for the holidays.

Interesting. Seems like a lot of work unless you're doing it in a bathtub for the whole frat. :D
 
Recipe please.
Undead Gentleman

1.5oz Gold Jamaican Rum (I like a Hampden)
1oz Black Overproof Rum (I like Lemon Hart 151, but Planteray OFTD works as well)

0.5oz fresh lime juice
0.5oz fresh grapefruit juice

0.5oz Falernum
0.5oz Cinnamon Syrup

Build in a cocktail shaker with cracked or cubed ice.

Rinse coupé glass with a dash of Absinthe.

Then strain into coupé glass.

Garnish with intertwined lime and grapefruit peel.

My editor note; this is basically a Zombie retooled into a neat cocktail instead of a long sipper drink. It is very very tasty with a funkier Jamaican base rum to balance the dark overproof and all of the spices.

Enjoy!
 
Darn.....I can't make this in my house. The wife is allergic to cinnamon. Oh well....it sounds very strong and very tasty.

Thanks.

(please keep posting the recipes.......I'll keep trying them)
