The Bum's research points toward a 2:1 ratio of grapefruit to cinnamon and this seems to work great in many classic recipes. Trader Tiki's product is a fine re-creation as well." I completely disagree on #7 being the grapefruit/cinnamon mix that The Bum gave us for the Zombie. That may be used for #4 in the Zombie, but #7 is different. Otherwise there would not be a #4 and a #7!
