I know this is looking ahead to yet another holiday, but apparently there is a drink out there called an Irish Car Bomb. (And yes, I will refrain from commenting on the tastelessness of the name.)

It is compounded of a shot of Jamison's Irish Whiskey, Bailey's Irish Cream, all dumped into 3/4 pint of Guinness.

It gives me a migraine just contemplating it.

I've tasted Irish Cream (did not like it at all), smelled Guinness (and decided discretion being the better part of valor, did not drink it), and have avoided whiskey. But some of you might like such a thing.

(I know, lots of people love Guinness. But I can't get past the smell of any beer. Besides, having learned that wine gives me migraines gives me a reasonable excuse to avoid something I really don't like that much anyway.)

There are also cupcakes on the same theme. MOST of the alcohol will be cooked out of these, but still, I'm not sure it's a combination I'd fancy.
