I just remembered

In the nick of time, too. With Labor Day on the horizon, it just dawned on me, we haven't talked "Tiki". Oh my, such an omission! As a matter of fact, I probably won't do this iconic summer theme justice and so for a more complete fix and fixins', visit this website: http://www.tikidrinkrecipes.com/

For now, just go light those torches, grab a palm leaf fan or two, don a sarong and get ready to hula. This drink sounds like it will set you and the Dog Days of Summer free! It is the Tiki classic, Zombie Cocktail

1 measure dark rum
1 measure white rum
½ measure apricot brandy
2 measures pineapple juice
½ measure lime juice
2 teaspoons powdered sugar
Garnish: cocktail cherry and pineapple wedge


Add all the ingredients into a cocktail mixer with ice and shake, then pour into a hurricane glass. Spear the pineapple and cherry onto a swizzle stick and place on the edge of the glass, finally add a straw and a cute little drink umbrella. Serves 1 summer celebrant.
