CAFE BRULOT

Steps:

• Light the burner under a brulot bowl or chafing dish and adjust the flame to low. Drop the orange and lemon peel, sugar cubes, cloves, and cinnamon stick into the bowl or pan, pour in the cognac and curacao, and stir to dissolve the sugar. When the mixture is warm, ignite it with a match. Stirring gently, pour the coffee into the bowl in a slow, thin stream; continue to stir until the flame dies out. Ladle into brulot cups or demitasse cups and serve at once.

Steps:

• Cut the lemon and orange peel into long strips, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Place the peels, along with the cinnamon, cloves and sugar, in a brulot bowl or chafing dish over a lighted alcohol burner. Mash the ingredients with the bowl of a ladle. Then slowly add the brandy and liqueurs, stirring until the sugar dissolves. After the liquid has warmed, carefully light it. Slowly add the hot coffee, stirring constantly until the flame goes out. Serve in hot brulot cups or demitasse cups.

CAFE BRULOT (CAFé BRûLOT DIABOLIQUE)

Steps:

• Using a grinder or mortar and pestle, grind together orange and lemon zests, spices, pecans, and sugar until finely powdered.
• Transfer ground nut/spice mixture to brulot bowl or chafing dish or large saucepan.
• Place dish directly over heat source with the flame on low; add Cognac and liqueur.
• Just as liquid starts to simmer, half fill a metal ladle with the liquid and ignite (I use a long grill lighter to do this and keep a lid for the pan handy: it can be a bit intimidating once the whole thing is ignited; if the flames get to high for you to handle, you can just put the lid on the pan and the flame will go out and you can try again).
• Return flaming liquid to dish to ignite the rest, and stir until sugar dissolves.
• As flame begins to subside, slowly stir in coffee.
• Ladle coffee into brulot cups or coffee cups, and serve hot.
• Can also be served cold for a fancy iced coffee cocktail (coffee ice-cubes work the best, so the drink isn't diluted as the ice melts); shake in a cocktail shaker with ice and serve in champagne glasses.
