  • 15ml green chartreuse
  • 15ml black sambuca
  • 30ml green chartreuse
  • 4 or 5 pinches cinnamon powder
  • 1/2 dozen ice cubes

DIRECTIONS

pour 15ml green chartreuse into shot glass placed on saucer, layer 15ml black sambuca onto shot. pour 30ml green chartreuse into highball glass seperately ignite chartreuse in highball glass and pour flaming alcohol over the shot sitting in the saucer below - igniting shot. throw cinnamon powder into flames and then hold empty highball glass above flaming shot while upturned in order to catch vapour from burning shot. after burning for approx 5 to 10 seconds trap vapour in highball glass along with ice cubes and shake, whilst blowing out flames. patron then consumes shot in shot glass, inhales captured vapours with straw from highball glass and then attempts to suck remaining liquid from saucer. one of my most popular shots in my bartending career and always looks spectacular with the blue flames and sparks flying into the air when the cinnamon is thrown into the fire. guaranteed to test the mettle of any experienced campaigner
