Here's how to make the Flaming Moe and other cocktails from 'The Simpsons'

If, for some reason, you’ve always wanted to try a Flaming Moe, you’re in luck. YouTuber Nick – also known as Cocktail Chemistry – has put together a video so you can enjoy perfectly cromulent cocktails straight from Springfield.

First, there’s the Flaming Homer – 120ml of tequila, 120ml of creme de menthe, 120ml of peppermint schnapps and 60ml of cough syrup, blended and set on fire. But if a glass full of cough medicine doesn’t sound particularly appealing, Nick also included the recipe for an “improved” version: 22ml of creme de violette, 22ml of Cointreau, 22ml of dry gin and 22ml of lime juice.

Then there’s the Skittlebräu – originally a can of beer and a can of skittles. Nick’s updated version includes beer, lemon juice and ginger beer, and is very slightly more appealing than some warm, Skittle-y beer.

And there’s one final recipe that Nick doesn’t recommend: a single plum floating in perfume in a man’s hat, which is probably one to avoid.
