Cafe Brulot

Peel of 1 orange; in 1" by 1/8" strips
Peel of 1 lemon; in 1" by 1/8" strips
3 Sugar cubes
6 Whole cloves
1 Cinnamon stick -; (2" long)
1 Cup Cognac
1/2 Cup Curacao or other orange liqueur
2 Cup Fresh strong black coffee

Light the burner under a brulot bowl or chafing dish and adjust the flame to
low. Drop the orange and lemon peel, sugar cubes, cloves, and cinnamon stick
into the bowl or pan, pour in the cognac and curacao, and stir to dissolve
the sugar. When the mixture is warm, ignite it with a match. Stirring
gently, pour the coffee into the bowl in a slow, thin stream; continue to
stir until the flame dies out. Ladle into brulot cups or demitasse cups and
serve at once. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
