Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add the chili-infused reposado tequila, dragon fruit syrup, triple sec, agave syrup, fresh lime juice, and pineapple juice to a cocktail shaker.
  • Fill the shaker with ice and shake until well chilled.
  • Fill a red dragon tiki mug (or a regular rocks glass) with fresh ice, then strain the cocktail over the ice.
  • Place a dried lime wheel on top of the drink.
  • Carefully float a small amount of 100-proof spirit over the dried lime wheel.
  • Using a butane torch, carefully ignite the spirit. A small blue flame should appear.
  • Lightly sprinkle cinnamon powder over the flame to create a dramatic burst of fire.
  • Continue sprinkling small pinches of cinnamon over the flame for additional fire effects, if desired. The flame will eventually extinguish on its own, or you can smother it by adding a little more cinnamon.
  • Once the flame is completely out, enjoy your House of the Dragonfruit Cocktail.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for brighter citrus flavor.
  • Chill the tiki mug beforehand to keep the cocktail colder longer.
  • Adjust the chili infusion if you prefer more or less heat.
