Categories: Cocktail, Rum.

Ingredients:
1/2 ounce white rum
1 1/2 ounces golden rum
1-ounce dark rum
1/2 ounce 151-proof rum
1-ounce lime juice
1 teaspoon pineapple juice
1 teaspoon papaya juice
1 teaspoon superfine sugar

Directions:
Stir together all these ingredients (the juice in the recipe can be pineapple juice, passion fruit nectar, coconut milk, apricot, or cherry brandy -- just about anything) except the 151 and pour into a 14-ounce glass three-fourths full of cracked ice. Float the 151 as a lid (by pouring it into a spoon and gently dipping it under the surface of the drink). Then, if the spirit moves you, take a match to this mixture; it will burn. Garnish with mint (either straight or dipped in lime juice and then superfine sugar) and/or fruit. (A particularly fetching touch: On a toothpick, impale a lemon slice or pineapple cube between two maraschino cherries and lay this fruit kabob atop of the drink).
