Backdraft - Cocktail Recipe

Wondering how to make Backdraft? Cocktail Builder will help!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz of drambuie scotch whisky (alt: scotch whisky)
  • 1 1/2 oz of grand marnier orange liqueur (alt: orange liqueur)

Instructions

Pour equal amounts into Brandy Snifter and light.

Place hands over top of glass to form airtight seal that extinguishes flame. Slide straw between fingers keeping seal as tight as possible. Drink beverage through straw.

Remove straw after drink is finished. Put glass to nose and remove hand to allow burnt fumes to be inhaled through nose. Definitely a one-a-nighter.
