Flaming Dr Pepper

Per request:
1 oz        Amaretto
1/2 oz     151 Rum (any brand, but MUST be 151 proof...or higher)   
12 oz      Beer (I prefer Shiner for the color...and it's the best beer in the world, too)

OK, here we go.  Pour the Amaretto into a shot glass; it should be ~2/3 full.  Slowly pour the rum on top (I use a cherry or spoon to make this easier).  DRUM ROLL PLEASE!  Light the rum on fire.  WOO-HOO!
Drop the lit shot (glass & all) into a glass full of beer.
Chug.


And hey, let's be careful out there!

Sorry

I'm putting out too many fires right now, so no recipe.  Instead, I invite you to enjoy this picture of Tom Cruise from Cocktail.

Strawberry Daiquiri


CRAIG STILL SAYS :  "Stay away from the ready-made mixes.  They are crap by comparison."

4            
Large Strawberries (sliced)
1 oz        
Lime Juice
2 tbsp     Sugar

~cup       Ice


Dump it all in together & blend until smooth. Strawberry slice & small dollop of whipped cream for garnish.

Pina Colada

 


CRAIG SAYS:  "Stay away from the ready-made mixes.  They are crap by comparison."

1.5 oz     Light Rum
2 oz        Cream of Coconut
2 oz        Pineapple Juice
~cup       Ice

Dump it all in together & blend until smooth.  Pineapple slice & cherry for garnish. 

Straws are good, too, but lead to a quicker ice cream headache...
