Irish Trash Can

Irish Trash Can



H
as a bunch of unfinished spirits of the recent holidays or party that are not enough to serve for another party? Easy peasy. Throw everything into a punch bowl for delicious Irish Trash Can Drink. Add a can of energy soda and you’re ready to party again! This time, probably to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.

So, here’s the recipe for the Irish Trash Can that anyone can do. Oops! Not, anyone. Sorry, minors! No virgin version of this too, so better wait till you’re old enough to have a go on this. This recipe is good for 1 Collins glass of this delicious drink.

Irish Trash Can Drink Ingredients:

  • 0.5oz gin
  • 0.5oz vodka
  • 0.5 oz triple sec
  • 0.5oz blue curacao
  • 0.5oz light rum
  • 0.5oz peach schnapps
  • 1 can energy soda 

Irish Trash Can Drink Preparation:

  1. Fill a Collins glass with ice.
  2. Add all the liquors and stir.
  3. Tip over a can of energy soda into the glass. The yellow contents will blend with the blue curacao turning the contents of the glass green.
