flaming volcanoとは 意味・読み方・使い方

The flaming volcano is a large tropical group cocktail made of rum, brandy, pineapple juice, orange juice, almond syrup, and sometimes other ingredients. It is usually a multi-user drink, served to a group in a special, ritual vessel known as a volcano bowl, which is a decorative ceramic bowl (typically of about 32 US fluid ounces (950 ml) capacity) designed with a rising central hub feature usually resembling a crude volcano cone. The cone includes a second, much smaller central pit or "crater" which is partially filled with rum or other flammable high-alcohol liquor. The "crater" liquor is then ignited, creating a mild volcanic ambience with its central blue flame. This central flame can be interpreted as symbolically and subliminally suggesting spiritual or emotional unity among those partaking of the community beverage.
