Braiiinsss … Braiiinsss …are a balanced meal for a zombie. Senunas' Bar and Grill on North Main Street in Wilkes-Barre will serve them (or a reasonable facsimile) this weekend during the Zombie Pub Crawl.

Like an Ax to the Head is a three-ingredient concoction that results in an icky yet oddly pretty and entrancing shot. It includes peach or apple schnapps, Irish-cream liqueur and grenadine.

It's done in such a way that it looks like a bleeding brain, Dave Scherbenco, Senunas' bar manager, said. The shot is well-known as a brain hemorrhage, but Senunas' is twisting the title to fit this weekend's activities.

It's all in how you pour the ingredients.

You want to go schnapps first, then cream, then grenadine, Scherbenco said. The cream will float, and then the grenadine, because it's heavy, mixes through that.
