An extreme form of tealight. Pour a shot of Johnny Walker Black Label (or whiskey of your choosing) into a small plastic disposable cup. Set alight to the rim of the cup. The plastic will burn until it sets fire to the whiskey, at which point a blue flame will appear and burn for approximately one hour. Be careful with fire, kids. This is also not very good for the environment or your personal economy. Plastic should be recycled not burned, and Johnny Walker should be drunk and not burned. It is very beautiful, on the other hand.
