The story

The story behind Fireball

Fireball started in 1984 as Dr. McGillicuddy's Fireball Cinnamon Whisky, built by Seagram on an unaged Canadian whisky base. Sazerac bought the brand in 1989 and finally dropped the prefix in 2007, which is when the red label most of us know took over back bars across Long Island.

The recipe is simple and stays that way: Canadian whisky, natural cinnamon, sugar. No barrel time, no grape, no agave. That is why it lands at 66 proof as a whisky based flavored liqueur rather than a straight whiskey. We have poured it here for decades, and it still moves faster than almost anything else on the shelf.

Fireball cocktails and pairings

Fireball is sweet and hot, so it wants fat, salt, and cold. Serve it chilled in a shot glass, or stretch it in a mixer.
Good to know

Fireball questions, answered

Is Fireball whiskey or a liqueur?
Fireball is legally a whisky based flavored liqueur, not a straight whiskey. It starts with Canadian whisky, then adds natural cinnamon flavor and sugar, which lowers the proof to 66 and changes the classification.
What proof is Fireball?
Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey is bottled at 33% alcohol by volume, which is 66 proof. The lower proof comes from the cinnamon flavoring and sweetener added to the Canadian whisky base.
Where is Fireball made?
The whisky base is Canadian, and the brand was developed by Seagram in 1984. Sazerac bought the rights in 1989 and renamed it Fireball in 2007. Bottling and blending details are proprietary.
Does Fireball need to be refrigerated?
No, Fireball does not require refrigeration, though many people keep it in the freezer for a thicker, colder shot. Store it upright, away from direct sun, and it will keep indefinitely once opened.
