AdInstructions
- Pour the absinthe into a shot glass, then slowly pour the Tuaca over the back of a bar spoon so it floats on top in a separate layer.
- Set the drink alight and hold a pint glass upside down a few centimetres above the flame.
- Let it burn for about thirty seconds, then put out the flame, keeping the pint glass in place.
- Have the drinker breathe in the vapour trapped in the inverted pint glass through a bendy straw.
- Lift away the pint glass and let the drinker finish the shot through the straw.
