The 1964 Car Bomb Cocktail is a bold and creamy drink that’s inspired by the infamous Irish Car Bomb, but with a twist — a nod to 1964, often symbolizing a “retro-style” or slightly modified recipe using richer or vintage ingredients.
(Note: The term “Car Bomb” can be sensitive due to its violent historical context, especially in Ireland. A more respectful name often used today is the “Irish Slammer” or “1964 Irish Slammer.” I’ll give you that recipe below — same drink, better name.) ☘️🥃
🍀 1964 Irish Slammer (a.k.a. 1964 Car Bomb Cocktail)
Ingredients
½ pint (about 8 oz) Guinness Stout
½ shot (0.5 oz) Irish whiskey (Jameson recommended)
½ shot (0.5 oz) Irish cream liqueur (like Baileys)
Instructions
Pour the Guinness into a pint glass, filling it halfway.
In a shot glass, layer:
First, the Irish cream,
Then gently float the Irish whiskey on top (pour over the back of a spoon for layering).
Drop the shot glass into the Guinness.
Drink immediately — it will foam and curdle if left sitting.
Flavor Profile
Creamy and malty from the Guinness
Sweet and rich from the Irish cream
Warm and spicy from the whiskey
The combination gives a dessert-like, velvety mouthfeel with a strong kick — smooth but powerful.
💡 Tips
Use cold Guinness for the best flavor balance.
Don’t let it sit — the cream reacts with the stout and thickens quickly.
If you prefer a less heavy version, try using nitro cold brew coffee instead of Guinness for a “1964 Coffee Bomb.”
