Zombie
This is one of those iconic cocktails. I must have had a few fake zombies over the years, but it wasn’t until I got to the Match Bar in London, that I realised just how potent the real deal is.
They are so strong, that orders are limited to two per person, per night.
As a result, it’s only fair to make a clear warning that this drink is VERY VERY STRONG.
I can’t accept responsibility for you doing anything silly after drinking it.
I have looked high and low for the recipe, and to be honest, the measures just don’t seem right (there is very little mixer and a whole heap of alcohol), but then, it does taste pretty much like pure alcohol when you buy it in a cocktail bar!

We tried a crazy cocktail this year.
Throughout the night we had been referring to the web for new cocktail ideas. We found a few nice ones (which I will report on in another post).

Brain Hemorrhage/Monkey’s Brains
There are a few different recipes for this, as there are different names for it.
It’s always great if you want to drink something that tastes decent, but looks horrible.
It does taste good, honest.
The traditional ingredients are as follows:
1/2 – 3/4 oz. Peach Schnapps
1-2 Tbl. of Irish cream liqueur
1 tsp of grenadine.

There are loads of sites out there that have cocktail recipes. And some of them even dare to post special Halloween cocktails. Which is pretty cool.
However, in my experience they’re often flawed. One of the bigegst problems being that you need to go out and buy a load of very specific ingredients, which is expensive, and wasteful (if you don’t use them after Halloween).
Therefore, I have decided to post cocktails that I have tried and tested!
Here’s the first couple.
