Fireball Whisky

Unread postby Birdo » Mon Jun 30, 2014 12:42 pm

I bought two 50ml bottles of this stuff. It's a cinnamon flavored whisky that tastes a lot like Red Hots, Its pretty sweet and only has a mild bit of whisky flavor. Kids like to do shooters of this stuff and thats probably fine for them. Bourbon drinkers need not apply, this stuff is more like schnapps. I guess you could mix it with soda but that would be very sweet, and would result in a headache.

I hear they put antifreeze chemicals in it, propylene glycol. A shipment was sent to Europe and they rejected it because it's banned for human consumption there.

Don't mix it with soda, mix it with bourbon, say 50/50 (or whatever proportion you desire). This will retain much of the sweet cinnamon taste but give you more whiskey flavor.

Try it and report your thoughts.

Good idea Gary, I added a splash of Fireball to my wild turkey and it made for a nice cinnamon whiskey cocktail.
