Zombie’s Bane
Description
The Zombie was created in 1934 by Donn Beach and became a tiki legend, famous for its strength. Zombie’s Bane flips the formula: lighter, herby, and made with absinthe and mint to “ward off the undead.” It’s a playful nod to mid-century tiki culture, reborn for spooky season.
