Dublin Drop Cocktail Recipes

DUBLIN DROP CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt®) and coat inside of pan with unsweetened cocoa powder.
• Beat cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, 1 egg, and Irish cream liqueur in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
• Beat chocolate cake mix, chocolate pudding mix, 3 eggs, and vegetable oil in a separate bowl until batter is thick and smooth. Slowly beat Irish stout beer into the batter.
• Spoon 1/3 of the cake batter into the prepared pan; layer the Irish cream filling on top. Spoon remaining cake batter over the filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Loosen the edges of the cake from the pan with a thin spatula; let cake rest in pan 15 minutes. Invert pan over a wire rack to release cake and allow to cool completely on the rack.
• While cake is cooling, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat and stir in white sugar and Irish whiskey. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar, reduce heat to low, and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer cake to a serving platter. Generously brush whiskey glaze over cooled cake several times and allow glaze to soak into cake.

DUBLIN DROP COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Pour beer into a pint glass. Pour Irish cream and Irish whiskey into a shot glass. Gently drop the shot glass into the glass of beer. Drink quickly before the Irish cream curdles from the whiskey.

LEMON DROP COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Run lemon wedge around the rim of a cocktail glass to dampen, then dip in sugar to coat.
• Combine vodka, lemon juice, lemon simple syrup, and orange-flavored liqueur in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice, seal, and shake until shaker frosts over. Pour into a martini glass to serve.
