    The finger I lick
    Will soon turn red.

    I think I found your source, Morgoth! :D

    Here's my next submission:
    EDIT - Let me do a BlackHawk and try making up my own...

    You can make me burn
    Or I can make you burn
    Or, more properly, I can quench your fire.

    Rotku is closest but not quite close enough.

    A long shot, but my first thought: is it water?

    The answer has several meanings (a different one for each line of the riddle), and only the last is a beverage. It's also the name (hence, "properly" - names are proper nouns, right?) of a specific beverage, not a class thereof.

    How about Oil?
    That fits with the first two lines, and for all I know it could be a type of alcohol
    ...But then if each line has a different meaning?
    How about cider?

    Its a spirit of some kind. Thus the burning. You know, lightit up or drink it down. Burns. Then there is the last line which has something to do with the name. Can quench a fire. It's a play on words.

    Think brand names people.
    Ill stab at it with some generic types.
    Moonshine?
    Whisky?
    Brandy?
    Tequila?
    Vodka?
    Arrak?
    Whiskey?
    Port?
    Muscat?
    Sherry?
    Rum?

    The beverage is non-alcoholic. Rotku is getting close with his idea about oil, and Baezlebub has the right idea with brand names. :roll:
