If you are a great fan of Long Island Iced Tea and related drinks, then you MUST try the Irish Trash Can for sure. No, this is not another version of Long Island Iced Tea, but an equally potent cocktail drink with as much as half a dozen liquors and liqueurs going into this one.
In addition, there is Red Bull, so I am pretty sure there is no shortage of energy going into this one. But, is it really good to drink? I bet you can. This would be a great drink to start off your weekend party, with high on energy, big enough to kickstart a night of party.
But why is this Irish reference? Probably because of the green color this drink turns itself into at the final stage.
Ok, let’s not waste more time and get straight into the Irish Trash Can recipe.
