 Flaming Sambuca - Anyone tried it?  1

Anyone else ever taken a shot of Flaming Sambuca? (sp? I'm not sure if the liquor is called Sambuca or Sambusca) They're fuckin good and fun to do.
So this is how the Flaming Sambuca works for those who don't know:
1. A shot glass is placed in the middle of a small plate and filled past the rim with the liquor Sambuca. The shot glass overflows with Sambuca so it is sitting in a little puddle on the plate.
2. The shot is lit on fire with a blow torch and then cinnamon is sprinkled over the top. They sprinkle the cinnamon for 2 reasons, 1 is because it burns really quick and the fire flares up really big for a second, and 2 is because some gets in the shot glass and adds to the flavor.
3. You suck the shot down with a straw while the Sambuca is still on fire. (It tastes really really good for a shot, so good you can actually drink it through a staw.  The Sambuca tastes alot like black liquorish and it's nice and warm with a hint of cinnamon flavor added to it.)
4. There will still be a puddle of flaming Sambuca on the plate burning away. You take a glass and hold it over the flames and catch the alcohol vapors until it burns out. Then you stick your straw up in the glass and inhale the vapors.
I'm not so sure about that last step though, inhaling the alcohol vapors. Supposedly inhaling the vapors from the burning alcohol will get you drunk. Is that true? Could you take a shot of everclear, light it on fire, and the catch a buzz from inhaling the vapors?
Anyways, try some Flaming Sambuca sometime, it's good shit!

Be sure to try that and post the results here.
That would be pretty sick, but that would probably be like sniffing rubbing alcohol and getting a buzz off that. Since only the alcohol will be burning and probably some of the cinnamon fumes. But it might not.

That wasn't how we used to do it....
Fill a shot glass to just below the top.
Put a coffee bean in the shot glass (I guess for the same reason you use cinnamon)
Light the glass on fire
Take the shot glass and - this is important - BLOW THE SHOT OUT AS YOU BRING IT TO YOUR MOUTH!!
Take the shot

This is the real way... The way described by the first post is insane and dangerous. I used to bartend, and I've thrown a wet towel at more than one flaming moron.
DO NOT try this with everclear...

Umm... No. He described a different type of flaming shot, my original post is a shot called "Flaming Sambuca" that uses Sambuca and cinnamon and it's not insane or dangerous at all. You don't drink the shot like the idiot in the youtube video did, you suck it down with a straw. The only real danger is getting too close and burning your eyebrows or melting the straw in the flames. And the vapors are caught in a cup, it's not like your leaning over the fire trying to inhale fumes.
Has anyone else ever tried Sambuca before? Flaming or not.

No...that was a Flaming Sambuca that I posted 
At least, if you go in to any of the bars around here and ask for a "flaming sambuca" that's what they'll give you.
Have you ever had one in a bar before?

Yeah. Sambuca is the only way I like that licorice/anise flavor.

Yeah, the only time I had flaming sambuca was in a hookah bar, it's good shit. I guess they're just different ways to prepare the same drink. I'd imagine the cinnamon version would taste better than the coffee bean version though.

Here's a flaming shot I like. Take one part 151, one part Bailey's Irish Cream, and one part goldschlager. Drop in a pinch of cinnamon. When you light it up, the gold flecks from the goldschlager and the cinnamon will cause the fire to spark up and makes for a nice light show.
Warning, do not do around anything flammable.
Also, The Bailey's is completely optional. Could just do it with 2 parts goldschlager so you get extra sparking action.
But, then you can't call it "Bailey's Comet" anymore.
