Not till the tail end of the week, but sometime between Thursday & Sunday, I’m making Zombies –
» ¾ oz 90 proof Rum
» 1 ½ oz Gold Rum
» ¾ oz Light or White Rum
» ¾ oz pineapple juice
» 3 tablespoons lime juice
» 1 tsp powdered sugar
» 1 tablespoon 151 proof Rum
Combine all the ingredients except the 151 proof rum and sugar into a shaker with plenty of cracked ice. Shake the concoction till ice-cold. Pour the shaker’s liquid and ice into a hi-ball glass or cool tiki mug, garnish with a pineapple spear and a cherry and a straw for sipping. Float (I’ll explain below) the tablespoon of 151 rum on the top of the drink then finally dust with the powdered sugar.
To float a liquor on the top of a drink, slowly and softly pour the spirit over the round, backside of a tablespoon held very closely over the drink. The liquor should suspend and float on the drink’s top.
