There are several reasons to light a cocktail on fire- flavor, warmth and presentation to name a few.

Yes. There are many ways to change cocktails and update them; however the technique of building a cocktail is crucial. You should always start with the right glassware. Then add ice - all the way to the rim of the glass - cocktails taste best when made with a lot of ice. At this stage, if your cocktail recipe requires any seasoning, you should add it (for instance a bloody mary). Next, you should add the spirit (vodka, rum, etc.), followed by the mixer(s) and garnish.
