Poisons: Spicy cocktails

Prairie fire at Mum's

Ingredients: Shot of Jose Cuervo topped with Tabasco

Damage: $3

Skinny: You’re bad ass (or simply without taste buds), if you can bring your lips to the prairie fire and swallow without grimacing and violently shaking your head "No, no, no!" For drinkers who like liquor to sear the backs of their throats, Tabasco adds a nice flavor to tequila’s gruff bite.

Need more flavor? Order a $0.50 bag of Andy Capp's Hot Fries from Mum's and sprinkle crushed fries onto the top of the shot. It don’t get classier (or hotter) than that.—Jessica Novak
