How to Make a Flaming Hell Shot

A Flaming Hell Shot is a flaming alcoholic beverage prepared from high-proof liquor, and tastes like a soft drink. A flaming cocktail was first served at the Ptarmigan Club in Bryan, Texas in early 1960’s. This drink is made by pouring three parts of Amaretto (a sweet almond flavoured liquor) and one part of high proof liquor in a shot glass. The high-proof liquor is layered on the top and is not mixed with amaretto; instead it is set on fire and dropped into the glass containing beer. The beer extinguishes the flames and the cocktail is then consumed quickly.
