    I think this is a regional thing, as you just made me doubt myself.

    I’ve ordered car bombs here in the Midwest and it’s always been whiskey and a stout. I don’t know if I’d call anything with just coffee liqueur in it a “car bomb” that’s not a very strong drink.

    A quick Wikipedia check says it can be either Irish cream or whiskey, and that the names are somewhat interchangeable.

      Irish carbomb is a glass of Guinness and half a shot of Jameson Irish whiskey and half a shot of bailey’s Irish creme. Drop the shot in and chug the delicious concoction.
