So, I was thinking...
I tried a drink for the first time in Rose and Crown Pub last month. It wasn't on the bar menu, but the bartender was able to make it. My friend said she wanted to try it, so I went ahead and bought the same drink.
It was called an Irish Car Bomb. It's a depth-charge type of drink made with Guinness. The depth charge is a shot of equal parts Jameson whisky and Bailey's. You drop the shot into the Guinness and then drink it as fast as you can before the Bailey's makes the Guinness curdle.
(FYI, it's not a full pint. There needs to be room for the shot!)
The guys in the bar next to us heard us order and started cheering us on. I was able to successfully drink it in one try, but my friend was not as fortunate. It was a lot of fun, and if anyone wants to do one of these with me, let me know. It was sort of like a Guinness milkshake, but not as gross as it might sound.
Anyone want to join me in this endeavor? If not, I'll just do it and meet you by the France slushies.
Um depends on how I am feeling.
