萨姆布卡酒,意大利茴香酒:一种用接骨木果制成的意大利酒,用甘草调味
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sambuca is an anise-flavoured, usually colourless liqueur. Its most common variety is often referred to as white sambuca in order to differentiate it from derivative spirits that are deep blue in colour (known as black sambuca) or bright red (red sambuca).[1][2]
Preparation: Light in a shot glass and allow to burn. Extinguish by covering the top of the glass with the palm of the hand.
Sambuca is often used rather than sugar to sweeten espresso coffee. A traditional Italian preparation is sambuca con mosca (literally, "with flies"); sambuca served with three coffee beans representing-health, wealth, and happiness (or luck), dropped into the drink.[2]
A flaming sambuca is typically made by lighting the drink in a shot glass and allowing it to burn. The flame is then extinguished and the Sambuca is quickly drunk whilst still warm. One popular method of extinguishment is placing the palm of the hand over the top of the shot glass, where suction is created causing the shot glass to "stick" to the hand. This is also potentially dangerous; if the flame is allowed to burn for too long, it will heat up the shot glass also - resulting in burn injuries to the hand.[4]
Another method for igniting the drink is a potentially dangerous party trick known as the gas chamber. One person takes a shot of Sambuca into the mouth and someone else lights it. The flame is extinguished by closing the mouth.[citation needed]
Sambuca is also used as the main spirit in a sapplebuca. The surprising ingredients actually work superbly well to create a refreshing drink with interesting flavours.
Another interesting technique is to pour a shot of sambuca into a red wine glass, and then to light it on fire. Extinguish quickly by blowing it out, then take the shot and flip the glass over immediately. Suck out the alcohol fumes with a straw, allowing you to fully taste sambuca.
