Irish Car Bomb, Lunch Box, & Depth Charger

3/4 pint Guinness
1/2 shot Jameson Irish Whiskey
1/2 shot Bailey's Irish cream

Add the Bailey's and Jameson to a shot glass, layering the Bailey's on the bottom. Pour the Guinness into a pint glass or beer mug 3/4 of the way full and let settle. Drop the shot glass into the Guinness and chug. If you don't drink it fast enough it will curdle and increasingly taste worse. Tastes like beer at the start, milkshake at the end.

Ask for Lunch Box in old fashioned irish pubs, and a Depth Charge in Ireland, for similar drinks without offending people. (Imagine an Irishman asking for a "9/11" in the US!)

LUNCH BOX

3/4 Bottle Beer
1 shot Amaretto
1 oz Orange Juice

Lunch Box Directions
Fill a glass almost full with beer. Fill the rest with orange juice (careful not to fill it to the top). Then take the shot of amaretto and drop it into the cup with the beer and orange juice.
Serve in a beer mug.

DEPTH CHARGE

1 shot Vodka
1 shot Coconut Rum
1 shot Coffee Liqueur
1 shot Pernod
(fill to top) Cola
1 bottle pineapple juice
1 splash lemonade


Depth Charge Directions
Pour the Vodka, Pernod, Malibu & Tia Maria into a one pint beer glass, add the lemonade and pineapple juice, and top up with coke. Serve in a beer mug.

Long Island Iced Tea

Transcript: How to Make a Long Island Iced Tea

Jonathan Stewart here for About.com with today's 90-second quick-tip. What should you serve to stuffy guests on a hot summer day when they ask for something cold to drink? As long as they're not driving, you might try a Long Island Iced Tea.

Clocking in at 28 percent alcohol, this drink packs quite a punch, which might account for why it's one of the top five requested cocktails in the country.

Long Island Iced Tea Ingredients

For today's recipe, here's what you'll need - check it out:

• 1/2 ounce each of top-shelf vodka, tequila, light rum, gin, and triple sec
• 2 ounces of sour mix
• a splash of cola
• a lemon wedge
• a shaker and glass
• ice

Long Island Iced Tea's Flavor

Some people claim that the Long Island Iced Tea tastes a little like good old fashioned iced tea, and that back in the day it was used to trick teetotalers into getting a little tipsy, which seems a little mean. Except for the fact - if you're confusing a cocktail with five types of alcohol with Lipton's, you've probably already had a couple yourself.

Mix the Long Island Iced Tea

Start by poring your vodka, tequila, rum, gin, and triple sec into your shaker over ice, then add your sour mix and splash of cola. Squeeze in your lemon wedge, and give the whole mixture a good shake.

Next, pour the mix into an ice-filled glass, and toss in the lemon for good measure. If you're catering to fancier boozers, try garnishing with a lemon spiral.

Long Island Iced Tea Variations

Some bartenders will omit the tequila so that it doesn't overpower the other liquors in this cocktail, a practice which may have found its roots in a little underground bar in Hanover, New Hampshire, where the Long Island iced tea is the best you'll find on either side of Long Island.

Long Island Iced Tea Origins

There is some debate as to the origin of the L.I. Tea - some claim it hails from the Prohibition era, others say it's from Tennessee, others still say it really is from Long Island. But regardless, this popular beverage contains at least two shots of alcohol, and double that in some bars, so be sure to enjoy responsibly.
