Flambéed Food
Flambéing is a cooking technique that involves combining alcohol and heat to create a burst of flames. It can help enhance dishes like crepes, crème brulee, puddings or even steaks. While the liquid alcohol is not visible after the process, the dish still retains 75% of the original alcohol content.
In Ice Cream
Ice cream is no longer limited to strawberry, vanilla and chocolate flavours. Today, you can get yourself a range of boozy ice creams, including beer ice cream and vodka chilli ice cream.
