The zombie is a quintessential classic tiki cocktail. But a lot of people don't like it.
In fact this is what gave rise to the Jet Pilot, it's basically a rejiggered zombie. But it's missing some key ingredients, like grenadine.
While grenadine isn't a defining factor for making a cocktail a zombie, maybe there's a way to include it and still make the proportions work better.
I was recently chatting with another tiki bartender about the golden ratio and how it can be used to template cocktails.
So taking inspiration from that, I give you Patient Zero.
