The Sambuca Homepage
Have you ever wondered why your parties are dull? Why is it that when you meet some place to warm up for tonights festivities, you always end up bored before it's time to leave? There can only be one reason. Too little FIRE at your parties. To cure this lack of burning one could either burn down your house/apartment every time you have a party (not so good) or drink Sambuca (definitively better). Sambuca is an Anise flavoured liqueur normally served as an after dinner drink.
Ways to drink sambuca:
1. The boring way
Dilute it with water. Makes a pleasant long drink (or so they tell me).
2. The traditional way
You pop two coffee beans in your mouth, chew them, set the shot on fire, put it out and drink it. This is the way described on the bottle, and supposedly the "right" way.
3. The cool way
You take the sambuca into your mouth, but don't swallow. Wipe your lips so that none of the sambuca is on your lips. Tilt your head back, and open you mouth, and have your friend light a match, a light the sambuca in your mouth. Wait until you can feel it burning, (it's not as dangerous as it sounds) and then close you mouth. Shake it around and then swallow. This is of course the way my friends and I do it, and it always attracts peoples attention. Try it out at your local, dimly lit pub, impress you friends at the party and have fun.
The good thing about Sambuca is that it combines three good things into one. You get drunk, have fun and get to set things on fire. Cool!
