This coffee is fire. Keep an extinguisher handy. Photo by Kaity Schultz.
If you’re anything like me, you like to spice up your coffee recipes every once in a while to keep things interesting. What sounds better than coffee mixed with a relatively “harmless” high-content alcohol? As we all know, nothing mixes better with flammable liquids than fire, so we’re gonna be using some of that as well. Today, we’re making one spectacularly dazzling drink called the Flaming Spanish Coffee.
The drink calls for 151-proof rum, which Bacardi discontinued; however, Don Q and Cruzan should still be producing theirs. Also, make sure the mouth of your stemmed (FIRE RESISTANT) glass is wide enough to allow oxygen to reach the contents inside, otherwise the fire will get snuffed out.
This interactive cocktail is guaranteed to entrance anyone who witnesses the sparks and flames that emerge from the glass. It’s delicious, but more importantly, it looks super badass (just don’t light your house on fire!).
Be sure to have a fire extinguisher standing by, just in case (once again) you’re anything like me and remain one small mistake away from epic disaster at all times. Let’s begin!
