I sat at the bar just a seat over from the drink station where the servers pick up cocktails for patrons. One server asked the bartenders for a drink called and Irish Hand Grenade. Neither of the two bartenders knew how to make it. The server asked them if they could google it and find a youTube video for instructions as she really wanted to make sure her customer on the patio had a pleasant experience. In the end, they were able to fix one up. It looked something like what's pictured above. The "Irish" in the name refers to the drinks Irish ingredients: typically Guinness stout, Bailey's Irish Cream, and Jameson Irish whiskey. The drink was originally referred to as the Irish Car Bomb but the name has changed as some find the original designation offensive. I can see why. I just have a hard time understanding why someone would come to a tiki bar and not order a tiki drink. But that's just me.
Speaking of the patio I got some cool pictures of tikis out there.
