FLAMING ORANGE PEEL

there are many drinks in which you can drop one of these into, impress your guests, it has a dramatic festive effect for this time of year!

CAFE BRULOT
please forgive the absence of measurements for this recipe
Into a thick bowl or chafing dish pour enough cognac to allow a liqueur glass for each cup of coffee, and of course for the bowl. Mull sugar with cinnamon stick, cloves, orange, and lemon rind in chafing dish. Pour coffee into mulled mixture. Peel an orange corkscrew fashion, holding over bowl,, pour cognac down peel, light, drop peel into the bowl, flames will flicker!
I'd say this was a bit more than a flicker...YIKES!
