Happy New Year, Tim!

I share your great respect for the Zombie Cocktail. Maybe here would be a good place to mention Professor Cocktail's book on the topic, "Zombie Horde," as well.

I take slight issue with your statement that the recipe for the proper 1934 Zombie was kept secret until Jeff's (re)discovery, although it might as well have been as far as we are concerned. As you know, Jeff found it published in a 1956 issue of Cabaret magazine. So some people must have known about it. As a collector of vintage mens' magazines who happened to have that very issue, I had to kick myself around the block when I found out the recipe had been there all along. :wink:

Cheers!

Agree, that's the same story I've read too.
