Flaming Ho - Summary

The Flaming Ho is a vibrant and intriguing shot that combines the sweet and fruity flavors of Midori Melon Liqueur with the bold kick of tequila. This shot is elevated by the addition of a dried prune, which adds a touch of natural sweetness and complexity, while a sprinkle of crushed brown sugar enhances the overall depth of flavor.

Its name might suggest a playful or cheeky aspect, fitting for a drink that is both visually and flavorfully striking. This shot is perfect for those looking to try something different and enjoy a cocktail that offers both a sensory experience and a conversation starter.

You may also use different variations of the same ingredient. For example, you could change up fruit types or sugar substitutes. Other substitutions would include different brands of liquor.
