This New Year's Eve-inspired libation comes with all the pyrotechnics.

3/4 oz Fresh lime juice
1/2 oz Simple syrup
6 Mint leaves
2 oz Bowmore 12-year-old single-malt scotch
1/2 oz Campari
Garnish: Flaming lime shell*

Add lime juice, syrup and mint leaves to a Collins glass and press gently with a muddler.
Add scotch and fill with crushed ice.
Float Campari on top and fill with more crushed ice.
Garnish with a flaming lime shell.
*Flaming lime shell: Squeeze half a lime, reserving juice for another use. Top drink with lime shell and place 1 sugar cube inside. Douse sugar cube with Bacardi 151 rum and carefully set on fire.
