I'm proud of this shot and thank you for comments. I'm just glad my wife didn't catch me in the act of creating this as it was done on our kitchen table.
The martini glass was set on a small piece of glass to create the reflection (and to keep my kitchen table from burning). Next I took a syringe and filled it with rubbing alcohol and used it to place the alcohol on and around the the glass. Last but not least, I lit the alcohol and snapped away. This is where things got a little tricky as apparently my kitchen floor and/or table is not 100% perfectly level. As the alcohol burned the martini glass would sometimes begin to slide to one side taking the flames with it. I fixed that situation by using a small piece of tape to secure the glass from sliding but that made resetting the shot more time consuming.

I think I would have liked to see this without the drops on the bottom right side, for a cleaner look. Still, it's cool! ... or hot! Or... well, you get the point.
