Ingredients
Yield:Two drinks and, with luck, generous applause
- 2pieces lemon peel, pith removed
- 2teaspoons Demerara or raw sugar
- 4ounces cask-strength Scotch
Preparation
- Step 1
Place a piece of lemon peel in each of two teacups or small, heavy glasses.
- Step 2
To prevent house fires, pour some water into a baking sheet over which you will make blue blazers.
- Step 3
Dim lights. Have ready two one-pint mugs, ideally metal with a flared lip. Pour sugar and 3 ounces of boiling water into one mug and then add Scotch. Ignite alcohol with a long match and pour about half the liquid into empty mug, then pour that back into the first mug. Repeat four or five times. Proceed quickly but with great caution.
- Step 4
Pour flaming drink into teacups or glasses and cover with mug to extinguish flames.
Tip
- It is imperative to practice this drink with water, and no fire, before attempting the combustible version.
