28 Days Later: A Zombie Apocalypse Cocktail Party


To commemorate the 22nd anniversary of its release on November 1st, we’re diving into the terrifying world of Danny Boyle’s 2002 horror classic, “28 Days Later“. Join your hosts, Karen and Greg, as they dissect this iconic zombie film while sipping on a bloodcurdling Zombie Brain Shot cocktail. We’ll delve into the film’s gripping plot, unforgettable characters, and groundbreaking special effects. Whether you’re a seasoned horror fan or a newcomer to the genre, this episode is sure to leave you breathless.


Zombie Brain Shot


• 1 oz peach schnapps
• 1/4 oz creme de menthe
• 1/2 oz Bailey’s Irish Cream
• 1/4 oz grenadine


Instructions:



  1. Fill a double shot glass with peach schnapps, filling shot glass 1/2 way.
  2. Add a splash of Creme de Menthe for a green hue.
  3. Place a small spoon over top of shot glass, upside down, and pour Baileys over back of spoon so it slides off. Doing this makes Baileys fan out further while pouring, resulting in larger clumps in shot glass. Make a small layer of Baileys, about 1/4 size of shot glass.
  4. Holding grenadine bottle a few inches above shot glass, add a few dashes of syrup, trying to aim for bigger clumps of Baileys. Keep an eye on how Baileys is reacting in shot glass to achieve a “zombie brain” look you want.
  5. Drink and enjoy (if you dare!)
