One thing about prairie fires: the alcohol and Capsaicin can actually complement each other. Alcohol bonds with capsaicin so the long-lasting burning sensation of the hot sauce is reduced. At the same time, the flavor of the hot sauce can mask the burning taste of the alcohol. This seems to work best in the 2 parts alcohol, 1 part hot sauce varieties 24.237.201.148 09:38, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

This article needs quite a bit of work to bring it up to standards. Please consider adding more information to it.

[edit] Invented when? By who???

When was this reputed invention of such a drink? I was drinking vodka/tabasco shooters in Sweden in the mid 90s. We called them Grandmother's Softdrink. 150.203.35.113 (talk) 08:25, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
