Here is the background next week I am going to be in vegas for a conference and we need to have a drink called the "Frac Fluid".

What is frac fluid? It is the stuff they pump into the earth to help push natural gas to the surface.

Here is an image of the actual fluid.

However, the reason we are interested in it is it has a interesting side effect. Sometimes, the process of releasing natural gas allows a certain amount of the natural gas to get into well water. This leads to a very photogenic display of "burning water faucet"

Here is a Youtube of a local news story if you need inspiration

On one level, it looks like a watered-down cherry jello shot could make this work. IMHO, though, this stuff looks like red slimy goop. Not really appetizing.

On the next level, I can't imagine promoting a practice that is poisoning people's water supplies. There seems to be issues with "fracking." Check this out for the impacts of fracking:

Just a few days ago, I visited a bar and found almost the same named drink which you have mentioned. One of my friends told me its one of the finest drink you can ever have. I tried the same, could not find that good.

Still, it was good and I wanted to get the same again but not finding anywhere. Now, when I have decided to prepare the drink by myself, the problem is occurring with getting the recipe. If you are able to provide me with the same, please do so?
