Magic the Gathering Cocktails: Golgari Swarm

Scavenge your way to victory as those that fall before you become fuel for your fire. The death of one makes for an even powerful successor, that’s the Golgari way.

This concept is recreated by one simple ingredient, Red Bull. Red Bull gives you energy, a proverbial rise from the grave so to speak. You consume the fallen creature, in this case the Kraken from the Kraken Dark Spiced Rum, killed by the potency of the Absinthe. So thus, the Red Bull is in a sense its vessel for the Kraken to become one with you.
