What tips do you have when making the The Zippys Revenge Cocktail?

Zippy’s Revenge is a fun, but tricky one. Start with a good quality Amaretto for sweetness. Use dark rum for depth, but be careful not to overpower the other flavors. Kool-Aid is the wildcard - use a strong flavor like Cherry or Tropical Punch. Shaking is key to blending the flavors, but don’t overdo it or you’ll dilute the taste. A splash of club soda helps with fizz and adds a refreshing touch.
