Flaming Dr. Pepper

I was introduced to this drink last year and believe me, it was a trial by fire. This is one of those drinks that somehow manages to taste exactly like its name describes. Stupid Chocolate Cake shots....

Anyway, this is definitely a pre-party drink since it's not really safe to do with a ton of people around; plus it takes a bit of preparation. For this drink you'll need both a shot glass and a regular sized drinking glass. I strongly suggest a plastic cup since you'll be dropping glass on glass otherwise.

In the plastic cup fill it half way with beer. It doesn't really matter what kind, but keep it simple. You don't want to have to be chugging Guinness later.

In the shot glass fill it 3/4 of the way with Amaretto and then top it off the rest of the way with Bacardi 151. This is where it gets interesting.

Light the shot glass on fire and either blow it out after a couple of seconds and then drop it in the glass or if you're brave enough and don't mind facial reconstructive surgery just drop it in flame and all.

It should be noted that when you drop the shot in, beer comes flying out so this should be done over the sink.

Once you drop it in, just chug it! Once you reach the bottom you'll understand why they call it a Flaming Dr. Pepper shot. It seriously tastes JUST LIKE Dr. Pepper.

I would also like to suggest not doing too many of these like I did the first time. Chugging beer AND shots in quick procession is never a wise decision and before you know it you'll be blacked out face down on the floor.

True Story.

Liquid Cocaine

Ok, this one is close to my heart. This has got to be one of my favorite shots of all time. Not only does it pack a punch it leaves your mouth feeling warm with the taste of Cinnamon lingering long afterwards. Another up side? They're easy to make, none of this pouring over spoons crap.

To make a liquid cocaine:

Equal parts Bacardi 151, Goldschlager and Jagermeister.
(About 1/2 oz. each if you want to get technical)

When you're done it should look something like a dull or rust red with gold flakes visibly floating around. Then just find some friends and enjoy!
Be warned though, you probably shouldn't put away too many of these. If you find yourself taking these with ease, you're probably drunk and should switch to beer.
