The Zombie is intense, layered, and unapologetically boozy, built on a blend of rums that delivers funk, spice, and depth. Bright citrus and tropical fruit add sweetness and acidity, while absinthe and bitters weave in dark, aromatic complexity. It’s a powerful tiki classic that balances chaos with structure, finishing long, rich, and warming.
