It's been too long since I've gotten to update. I might just start doing much smaller ones so I can keep it on a roll and keep everyone posted. But i can say that for this St. Patrick's Day, I am going to enjoy a nice evening with my wife. She's cooking Shepard's Pie and I'm drinking an Irish Car Bomb. Hope y'all have a good one, and don't drink too many green beers.
Irish Car Bomb
16oz Can Guinness Draught
1½oz Carolan's Irish Cream
½oz Jameson Irish Whisky
Like always, there is a method to my madness. I chose these specific ingredients for quite a few reasons. I find the Guinness in the can to be more like the actual beer on tap, rather than out of the bottle and Carolan's has a much more creamier essence than Bailey's and stands up to the beer better. And Jameson because it's what I'm used to.
First, pour the Stout into a pint glass (or a little larger, you need room for the shot glass) and shake the whisky and cream over ice and strain into a shot glass. Drop the shot glass into the pint of Stout and drink it all down quick!

Have a good one! That car bomb is da bomb! I gotta try that. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIs it okay if I just amuse myself with hot cocoa with a shot of amaretto in it? I know it's not overly Irish but it's what I've got.
