Curated this - I know it's not easy, but we try to avoid "top with" amounts of ingredients due to different sized glassware. I'm assuming that 4 oz of birch beer would almost fill an ice-filled Collins that had 2 3/4 oz in it.

How exactly do you make ghost pepper syrup. Done incorrectly this could be a dangerous concoction...

sandynlevine commented on 11/21/2013:

Ghost Pepper Syrup

WEARING GLOVES, coarsely chop 1/4 oz. dried ghost peppers. Add them to 2L of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour.* Strain the peppers out and measure how much water you have. Add an equal amount of white sugar and stir until dissolved. Bottle. Remove gloves.

*You'll want to open the windows, turn on a fan, and leave the room.

  • I missed the stop of floating the Yellow Char. and shook it. Good, but that would have probably been better. I floated a little on it, nice. I used a jalapeno-infused blanco. — ★★★★

  • Super smooth. Possibly a touch sweet, but the maple syrup is delicious.
  • Weird drink, but quite good.
