Here is a twist on an old favorite. Are you tired of not being able to savor your Irish Car Bomb because the Bailey’s curdles too quickly? I know I am, which is why I pick up a pint (get it?) of Guinness ice cream whenever I see it at Jake’s Ice Cream and Sweet Shoppe. Aside from the multitude of original flavors they create, they are the only place I’ve seen Guinness, Bailey’s or Kahlua flavored ice cream. Let’s keep it Irish, and go with Guinness for today.
A normal Car Bomb is 12 ounces of Guinness in a pint glass, or a full pint if you are brave, and a shot glass with 3 parts Bailey’s and 1 part Jameson. Drop the shot into the beer, and drink as quickly as possible before the cream curdles; a lot of work for about 10-15 seconds of enjoyment.
For this beverage you need a large glass, two scoops of Guinness ice cream, a nip of Jameson, a shot of Bailey’s, some milk and chocolate syrup. Coat your glass with some chocolate syrup, and scoop in the ice cream. Pour in all your liquids and mix with a spoon. Drop a straw in your glass, and, presto, we have a Frozen Car Bomb. This is by far easier to drink, and there is no pressure that the Bailey’s will curdle.
You might have to make a few of these to get the measurements correct. I just went with my normal milkshake recipe and added in the alcohol. This is the perfect dessert after a dinner of corned beef and cabbage. If you have a copy of John Wayne’s classic film, The Quiet Man, you’re all set. Happy St. Patrick’s Day, folks!
