How to get shooting sparks in Bailey's Comet?
A few years ago I was in a western bar in Calgary, and saw folks
drinking flaming shooters with orange sparks flying out. As the waiter brought them to the table, the sparks made a graceful arc in the air. In recent 'net searches I discovered recipes for a "Bailey's Comet": Bailey's Irish Cream, Goldschlage, with cinnamon or grated nutmeg sprinkled on. I have tried that, and with Sambuca, and a few other variations, but can't get the sparks to shoot out. There are sparks while the cinnamon is shaken into the drink, but not rising from the surface and shooting out. Yesterday I was in that same bar again, and asked the waitress. She said they were perhaps Flaming Sambucas, but they don't have anything to make sparks AFAIK. The barmaid suggested Green Chartreuse, but ditto. Nobody there (that afternoon) knows how to make whatever it is. Does anyone here know the trick? -- John W Hall > Cochrane, Alberta, Canada. "Helping People Prosper in the Information Age" |
