Cocktail Country: Irish Car Bomb - St. Paddy's Day Special

The Irish Car Bomb

• 1 part Bailey’s Irish Cream

• 1 part Jameson Irish Whiskey

• Guinness Beer

• Glass:  Shot Glass and pint glass

1) Add the Bailey’s and Jameson to a shot glass. 

2) Drop the shot into a half-pint of Guinness.

3) Drink and Enjoy!

Contrary to what most may believe, the Irish Car Bomb wasactually created in Connecticut during the late 1970’s. With the same formula as the popular Jäger Bomb, making an Irish Car Bomb is easy. Grab a pint and detonate this guilty pleasure.

Wines We Love for Valentine's Day

Wines We Love for Valentine's Day

Cupcake Red Velvet Wine

Aromas of chocolate, deep dark blackberries and luscious red fruits that follow 

through to the palate. Finish with a hint of coconut and creamy mocha 

that shows unmistakable intensity and length.

Villa Jolanda Love You Spumante

Light notes of white stone fruit partner perfectly with the dense spumante

texture of this sparkler. The bottle alone is inspiring

"I Love You" is inscribed in 6 languages.

O3 Rosé

Elegantly intense wine displays a predominance of red wild fruits, pear

and plum with spice notes on the nose with the palate

being clean and well balanced.
