Notes

The Flaming Dr. Pepper Shot is a wild party favourite, but safety first—always be cautious when working with fire. The combination of flavours in this shot mimics the taste of Dr. Pepper, but with a fiery twist. The bitter beer helps cut through the sweetness of the liqueurs, creating a surprisingly balanced drink that’s both sweet and refreshing. Make sure your beer is chilled for the best effect, and don’t forget to extinguish the flame before drinking!
