When ethyl alcohol (ethanol) is lit, it typically burns with a pale blue flame. The flame may appear nearly colorless in bright light, but the blue hue is due to the complete combustion of ethanol, producing carbon dioxide and water vapor. The presence of impurities can sometimes alter the color of the flame, but pure ethanol generally produces this characteristic blue flame.
