Word of advice - never ask for one of these at a traditional Irish pub. If you must, try using a Celtic friendly term, like “Dublin Drop.”
The last time I tried to order a round using the drink’s true name was at Kelly’s Irish Times in DC. The bartender gave me a look of death and in a thick brogue said:
“You wouldn’t ask for a Kamikaze in a Japanese bar, now would you?”
Cultural sensitivity. Important.

Asking for an Irish Car Bomb in Ireland is like asking for a 9/11 in New York; it’s something you just do not do.

I want a Car Bomb Dublin Drop so bad now. Too bad Guiness is 12 bucks a pint in Ecuador.
