The Strolling Lifeless
What impressed the identify? What’s this drink’s origin story?
The identify is a play on a traditional tiki drink known as a Zombie. Earlier than Gin Rummy, this was a Mexican restaurant specializing in mezcal and different agave spirits. We inherited a variety of these agave spirits so I wished to create a tiki impressed cocktail utilizing what we had in home. We took a traditional Zombie recipe and pulled out the rum and changed it with 3 completely different agave spirits.Â
