Has anyone heard of this or tried it? Dark Rum Recipe - Babushka We had an argument if the rum we bought in a shop was pure or not. This is a way of testing it. If water is mixed then rum would not catch fire easily. INGREDIENTS :Dark Rum - 20ml Match Box (Source of Fire) PREPARATION :Take the 20ml of raw rum in a very small cup (The size of the cap of Old Monk Rum). Light a match stick and apply the flame to the rum in the cup. Place the burning match stick on the rum directly. Take care so that only the fire of the match stick touches the rum, and not the entire match stick. Once the rum catches fire.. wait for 3 to 5 seconds. Now its ready. Let the rum flow directly into the throat.
