Two Mondays ago, we were still feeling a tropical vibe, so I opened up the Minimalist Tiki book and spotted the Doomsayer's Grog by Jason Alexander. The combination seemed like a 1934 Zombie crossed with Navy Grogs -- both Don the Beachcomber's with honey and Trader Vic's with allspice dram as I had previously combined in some of my grog riffs. Once prepared, the Doomsayer's Grog proffered a mint aroma with hints of anise. Next, grapefruit, lime, caramel, and honey on the sip led into funky rum, cinnamon, and allspice flavors on the swallow.
