October 20, 2010 (Day 263) — Red Zombie
Day No. 2 of the Halloween drink series! Are you ready to rock? Pretty much everyone knows about White Zombie (the Rob Zombie vehicle that scared suburbanite parents with their kitchy horror-movie charm). However, I was interested when I stumbled across the recipe for what was called the Red Zombie cocktail.
Red Zombie
2 oz. vodka
4 oz. cranberry juice
.5 oz. triple sec
Combine all ingredients with ice in a shaker. Strain into a chilled martini glass with sugar rim.
A bit less sweet. Good balance, packing a punch. Sometimes simple is better. Nice and well balanced and simple enough to make.
Cheers!
