Petrol isn't an ingredient in Molotov Cocktails.

link the recipe

Molotov Cocktails have no true recipe. It's made simply by pouring some alcohol on a rag, stuffing the rag in the bottle, lighting it, and immediately throwing it at the enemy.

It doesn't have to be alcohol, it can be pretty much anything flammable, like kerosene or something.

It's called a Molotov Cocktail because it's alcoholic.

this is called a virgin molotav cocktail because its not alcoholic

It was invented by a Soviet farmer, so in all honesty, the active ingredient probably was alcohol.
