No wonder my mom’s relatives were so happy during the holidays…

I used to make a flaming coffee as a server, we did it year round, but it is a very stunning visual presentation and has a Christmassy flavor.

You will need:
1 pony jigger (.75 fl oz.) of Amaretto di Sarronno
1 pony jigger (.75 fl oz.) of Grand Marnier orange liquer
A short pour of Bacardi’s 151 Rum for flaming
2 cups of hot Kona coffee in a small teapot or suitable pouring container
2 long stemmed Hurricane glasses
1 orange slice
A mix of 4 T powdered sugar and 2 T cinnamon on a saucer
Whipped cream to top (Reddi Whip is best)
3 or 4 inch Long Matches

  1. ALWAYS HANDLE THE HURRICANE GLASSES BY THE STEM
  2. Wet the lip of the hurricane glass with the orange slice and and turn into the cinnamon powdered sugar mixture, coat the rim generously and thickly.
  3. Add the measured liquers to the coated glass and top with a decent pour of the 151 Rum.
  4. Lower the lights
  5. Light the match, hold the glass at a 45 degree angle and ignite the liquers. Blow out and discard the match.
  6. Tilt and twirl the glass, flaming and caramelizing the sugar and cinnamon rim. Toss a sprinkle of the Cinnamon sugar over the flaming glass for full effect (There will be a beautiful red and white sparking and blue flame from the cinnamon).
  7. Hold the other Hurricane glass under the flaming glass and pour the long flaming blue string back and forth between the glasses for full effect (Be very careful! It burns if you spalsh or miss… It is best to practice your technique ahead of time with the glasses and some water).
  8. Hit it with one more sprinkle of sugar cinnamon, pour in the Hot Kona Coffee extinguishing the flame.
  9. Top with a good squirt of Whipped Cream.
  10. ENJOY!
