The Flaming Cornholio is February 4th Drink of the Day!!

If you are as old as I am, you will remember Beavis and Butthead. It was a politically incorrect cartoon that aired late night on MTV. To meet the criteria of the name this drink is named after, it is important that it is as politically incorrect as those misfits. And as the name states, this is a flaming drop shooter, where the shot class is dropped into a bigger glass filled half-way with other ingredients. You may want to get a driver if you start drinking on these.

This can get very dangerous on many levels, so make sure to pay attention to your intake. Plus, with the potency of this, you may want to save this recipe for the weekend. A shot of Jack Daniels, poured in a pint glass half filled with orange juice will be the base. That’s right, there’s more. Then comes the shot glass filled with cinnamon schnapps and topped with 151 rum. As you can read, this one is not for the weak-hearted. Catching it on fire is another thing. Be sure that the orange juice fully extinguishes the shot before drinking or you will have a real mess on your hands.

Now that I have scared the hell out of you, enjoy! Just be aware and always drink safe!

Method: Take a pint glass and fill it half way with pulp-free orange juice. Pour in the measure of Jack Daniel’s. Set pint glass to the side. In a shot glass, fill it to about a 1/2″ from the top with cinnamon schnapps. Add a splash of 151 rum, floating it on top of the cinnamon schnapps. Take a lighter or match and light the shot.
