Flame Thrower Recipe
Pour grappa and southern comfort into a shot glass. Heat and ignite rum in a spoon, and add to the glass. Extinguish flame, and serve.
Grappa Brandy
Grappa is a brandy, a fragrant, pomace brandy of Italian origin. Made from the remnants of the wine mash from which the juice has been extracted ( the pomace in wine lexicon ) , it’s taste varies with the specific grape used. Platinum Grappa for example tastes like soured plums and honey, because it’s distilled from Amarone pomace, obtained from the process of making the sweet dessert wine, Recioto di Amarone.
Southern Comfort Peach Liqueur
Southern Comfort is now branded as a Whiskey Liqueur and is associated with bourbon , but originally the brand produced peach liqueurand was one of the few peach liqueurs in the market. Produced using neutral spirit and over 100 ingredients, the final liqueur matured for eight months before bottling.
Overproof White Rum
Overproof Rums are Rums with a much higher alcohol concentration which is usually greater than 57.5% but although 151 proof means 75.5% ABV, most Rums with 57.5% Alcohol are labelled as 151.
Overproof Rums are highly inflammable and are usually used in cocktails as a top layer meant to be ignited and burst into flames, rendering a charred flavour to the drink while arousing awe and interest by quite a fire show.
Overproof Rums are not meant to be drank neat or even as a base spirit, the alcohol concentration is too high, but it can add special character to mixed drinks.
Bacardi 151 was a famous overproof Rum and although it has been discontinued in 2016, there are other pretty famous brands like Lemon Hart 151, Hamilton 151, Wray and Nephew White Overproof Rum and Pusser’s Gunpowder Proof.
Note: Gunpowder Proofing a Navy Rum was an old concept, where Rum poured over Gun powder would not wet the gun powder and when lit, the gun powder will catch fire once the alcohol has burnt.
Navy rum was originally a blend mixed from rums produced in the West Indies. It was initially supplied at a strength of 100 degrees (UK) proof, 57% alcohol by volume (ABV), as that was the only strength that could be tested (by the gunpowder test) before the invention of the hydrometer. The term "Navy strength" is used in modern Britain to specify spirits bottled at 57% ABV. - Wikepedia

Where as a grey tick would mean that the recipe has not yet been manually validated or verified recently.
