The Estonian Forest-Fire is all about contrast. You get the smoothness of vodka with an intense kick from the Tabasco, immediately cooled by the juicy sweetness of the kiwi. It’s a wild ride of flavours that’ll take you from fiery heat to tropical cool in just a few seconds. It’s perfect for parties or when you want to surprise your friends with something different. Make sure you’ve got your kiwi handy, as it really helps balance out the heat.

Feel free to experiment with the spice level—add more Tabasco if you're feeling brave, or tone it down with fewer drops for a milder experience. No matter how you take it, this shot’s going to leave an impression.
