An ‘Irish Car Bomb’ is an American beer cocktail that is drunk as a bomb shot, similar to a boilermaker. It is made with Irish stout, Irish cream, and Irish whiskey.
To make the drink, whiskey is floated on top of Irish Cream in a shot glass, and the shot glass is then dropped into the stout. Once mixed, it must be drunk quickly because it will curdle. The “Irish” in the name refers to the drink’s Irish ingredients; typically Guinness stout, Baileys Irish Cream, and Jameson Irish Whiskey.
The drink is popular in the United States, but virtually unknown in Ireland. The ‘Irish Car Bomb’ was invented in 1979 by owner Charles Oat at Wilson’s Saloon in Norwich, Connecticut.
Lovely site .. But Irish car bomb cup cakes? Are you serious? Where are you FROM? That is so offensive.
Heh! Thanks for your feedback.
