Who needs a liver?

Back in the day, a couple of friends and I were knocking back Jager bombs back-to-back (and by "a couple of friends and I," I mean "I"). We were celebrating the return of a mutual friend who had been in Central America or some other place that wasn't here in the States.


He said he'd been at a bar overseas that didn't serve Red Bull. The problem was that he REALLY wanted a Jager bomb. He's a resourceful fellow, so he ordered whatever passed for beer in that part of the world, and dropped a shot of Jager in it. He decided it was quite tasty, naming it the "Mexican Car Bomb." When he came back, we found that our bar didn't carry the brand his new drink required. So in another spark of ingenuity, he ordered us each a shot of Jager, then a glass of Sam Adams. That, my friend, is an awesome combination. We named it the "American I.E.D" (improvised explosive device).


Later that night, I experimented on my own and discovered that Jager also goes very well with Killian's Irish Red. I ordered him a glass and a shot, and we named it the "IRA Car Bomb."


You're welcome.
