Wow, thanks so much for sharing this unique experience -- with pictures, no less!

My first experiment after ripping through "Sippin' Safari" was the 1956 Cabaret Zombie. I make the 1950 Spievak recipe regularly and it never fails to please. But I really felt like a mixologist when I lined up my 11 ingredients and then tasted the 1956 version -- rich, many-layered. At first I thought the maraschino overpowered it, but then it moved politely aside as the other flavors emerged. And what a wallop. Madame must go lie down now...
