Bacardi 151

Now flammable and intoxicating!

About Me

Me, or 151 as I am sometimes called, am an exceptionally high proof rum. My 151-proof liquor is approximately 75% ethanol by volume, and is sometimes referred to as "overproof rum" because of the high level of alcohol. I am notable for being, aside from pure grain alcohols such as Everclear, the strongest alcoholic beverage widely available in America.As with all beverages of this proof, consuming me by myself ("straight") is not recommended. Rather, I am typically used as a component in cocktails (whose final alcohol concentration may or may not be greater than that of drinks made with conventional rum).An infamous drink using me is the "Flaming Dr. Pepper", which is said, rather implausibly, to taste identical to the soft drink Dr Pepper despite being composed entirely of alcoholic beverages. The drink, perhaps more properly deemed a production, calls for ignition of the highly-flammable 151, and as such has been banned as excessively dangerous from some bars and restaurants. Another famous drink is the 252 which is a shot made of equal parts 151 and Wild Turkey 101.
