Photographing water on fire (creating the flaming cocktail)

Photographing water on fire is a beautiful thing which I allow you a front row seat on this video.
First of all, do not try this at home because you saw this video.
Now that's out of the way...
It is possible to set fire to water and then pour that water in creative ways that appeal to the visual aspect of us. That's what I did here, using a martini glass and cocktail shaker to bring home the bacon.
This is super cool! I call it The Flaming Cocktail and in this video you'll see how it came to be.
