Very patriotic! I’m not sure I’d drink it, though.
How cool! I somehow don’t think I’ll tell my pyro friends, though…. They’d think it would be just the drink to go with cooking pizzas in a raku kiln! (Not a good idea!)
Don’t think I’d drink it but it does look cool.
Wow, that’s really cool! But I’d be afraid to try it.. perhaps I would. Happy WW!
Wow! Science is totally cool!!

Awesome – fire and adult beverages? Perfect for my family’s July 4th celebration
Looks like a pyromaniacs dream LOL I don’t happen to have any liquor on hand but I’m sure I could mimic the effect with something flammable.
Thanks for the tip on layering drinks. Think I’ll leave off the flammable layer, and put blueberries on top.
It’s fun to look at…what does it taste like?
Is the name of the drink Flaming Patriot????
