This recipe was created by 2nd Platoon, Military Police Company C, United States Marine Corps (Reserve), quote "After 2 combat tours in Iraq over the past 2 years, we decided to honor those of us injured and to toast our fellow Marines killed by IEDs in Iraq. We just developed it in the barracks and will be taking it public the night of the Marine Corps Birthday Ball, November 10th [2004]."

1 shot Bacardi® 151 rum
1 shot Jagermeister® herbal liqueur
1 shot Goldschlager® cinnamon schnapps
1 shot Jose Cuervo® 1800 tequila

Combine Jagermeister (smoke), Goldschlager (fragmentation), and Jose Cuervo tequila (because we had 1 Mexican in the platoon) in a highball or old-fashioned glass. After all ingredients have been combined drop some lit Bacardi 151 rum into the glass and shoot. After a couple of seconds when the intital shock has wore off you yell BAM!!

A creative bartender at a now closed club in Dallas referred to this one as a "Natural Disaster" at the time. Never lit the 151, but a few of these drinks and you will be pretty lit!
