  • Huh. Never seen that before. Not obvious to me that the two flavors go together.

    @JohnInCarolina after having that, all the others taste like cough syrup.

    It's the ultimate "wide awake drunk", definitely will replace a few lesser combos I have had the pleasure of enjoying!

    Sounds good. Can you find this stuff in a regular liquor store?

    I used it straight up and will. One used in her coffee and said very good. This is just so much more than the other stuff (that i thought was outstanding).......

    @Mickey- that stuff is great. Try this one (called Irish taco). Mix shot of 2/3 cafe patron and 1/3 baileys.

    I was over served the same drink but it was called Baby Guiness. It was 6/15/12 a day of infamy, 6/16/12 the longest day of my life, I can still feel my heartbeat in the side of my head from that day.

    I had to send a neighborhood apology letter to our Christmas party friends after a few of us started shooting those. Expresso with a helluva kick. I woke up in panties and a Titans football helmet

    If you want something great to mix in coffee or drink straight, try this stuff. It makes monkeys crazy, along with elephants and Giraffes .image

    I keep a bottle in the freezer.  The colder it is, the better.

    Not to go to far off topic, but if you like this drink I would highly recommend white russians with an espresso shot.  Last summer we were in Jamaica for a friends wedding and we needed a "pick me up" at night from drinking all day.  Since they didn't have Red Bull, we opted for some thing else with lots of caffeine.  We drank at least one every night and when we got back my friend actually bought an espresso machine just for making these drinks!

    First thanks for the tip. Now, please NEVER worry about "not to go to far off topic". My God, that made my morning man. Now I can get thru the next 14 days till retirement... AND REAL CLOSE TO SALADO EGGFEST.... Oh, that is the getting off topic deal....

    If you were in Jamaica, I wonder if your drinks were made with Tia Maria?  (Jamaica's answer to Kahlua).  It's a tad sweeter than Kahlua - great stuff!!

    50 bucks a bottle, that's insane!  It's usually $25-$30 around here in central IL.

    For those of you more inclined towards Vodka than Tequila, this is also an excellent espresso liquor.
    http://www.crownwineandspirits.com/van-gogh-double-espresso-vodka-750ml/ It's made with real beans. Also, I totally agree about the patron, it's very tasty. I just am usually more of a vodka drinker.
