Bailey's Irish Creme has always been
my TOP FAVORITE!!!!

I like it with ice (on the rocks....)

Sometimes a splash of milk or cream.

Also with DeKuyper Butter Shots Butterscotch Schnapps. ... equal parts....
Very nice change to it,
again, you put in amounts of your choice and test.

Hey JC Hollywood!!!
Is this what would be considered a eggnog type??
I don't drink eggnog, but was just curious??????
My girlfriends all like it, we have a little get
together every year and my one girlfriend makes it up and they go bonkers for it.....

Hey Weezie,

Ask and ye shall receive! Here is a link to the history of the Tom and Jerry.

Tom and Jerry History

The recipe on this web site doesn't have powdered sugar, I don't think there was any in 1862!

Enjoy!

hey weezie ya might like a "duck fart"then

Hey njoynit,

I found this recipe on the Web, they use Royal Crown in place of your Canadian Club.

Drink Recipe: Duck Fart

Ingredients:
1/2 oz Kahlúa
1/2 oz Bailey's Irish Cream
1/2 oz Royal Crown (Canadian Club)

Mixing instructions:
layer ingredients in order into shot glass

Bet this looks great with the Kahlua at the bottom layered up to the Royal Crown on top.

Hey JC...Trader Joes and Beverages and More both have a Tom and Jerry mix now. Just add rum, brandy, heat and away you go. My friend bought some and it was tasty goodness. I'll have to get some for the upcoming holidays!

Njoynit and JC,
When doing your layering if one doesn't have
a steady hand or feel too confident with layering,
(you have to shoot the liquor in and on to the side of the shot glass as to not allow it to mix together as you're pouring...)
But if it's easier take the back of a spoon
and tip the spoon into the shot glass at say a
45 degree angle and gently pour on to the back
of the spoon and just to the side of the shot glass, so you achieve the layered look....

If worse comes to worse and you don't get it
the layered looked, they still take great
no matter what they look like!!

Weezie

And by the way,
when I originally learned that drink,
Some many millenniums ago,
it had Grand Marnier` on top.....
And they lit it!!!


And it was called a B52!!!!

Gardengal and Weezie,

Gardengal, thanks for the heads up about Trader Joe's, I will pick some up. I love Tom and Jerry's but hate the time it takes to make them. Plus that darn batter separates by the next day.

Weezie, great spoon tip for layering! B52, I have had them, no wonder that recipe looked so familiar.

I don't remember the name of the drink but I have had one of those layered drinks but wasn't sure while I was drinking it whether or not to stir it or drink it layer by layer. What is the RIGHT way to drink a layer drink. If there is a right and wrong?

One great big GULP!!!!!!!!!

Weezie

Brrruuuup!

They gave me a straw sillies!!! Now what?

How long has it been since you used a pea-shooter?
Use the straw to shoot beernuts at the bartender and swig that cocktail!

J/K... got ME stumped. Does anyone know?

Weezie is right...if it's in a 'shot' glass...one BIG gulp!!


I wouldn't try it with a bigger layered drink, like a coffee nudge...then you stir and drink...


(Gee, Dad...I must have read this somewhere, for surely I don't know! )

You are just too cute, Barleyclown!

What is a coffee nudge? Tell Dad you read about it in the New Yorker magazine.

By the way, you really are a cutie, I love your wedding pictures.

Good morning!
I'll bite, ('cause I'm the Cuba Libre girl)...
What is coconut rum????
I've heard of Cocoribe......
