3-Minute Bartender: Irish Mudslide

On this week’s edition of “3-Minute Bartender," we take a decadent detour into dessert-cocktail territory with the Irish Mudslide. Legend has it the original Mudslide was born in the 1970s at the Wreck Bar on Grand Cayman, when a bartender swapped Baileys Irish Cream into a White Russian after running out of cream. A happy accident, and history was made. Dan spins the tale forward with his Irish twist: ditch the vodka, bring in a proper Irish whiskey—his pick is Egan’s Bonder’s Blend, which layers in spice, butter, coconut, and a whiff of clove. Blend that with Baileys, Kahlúa, and a little cream, and what you’ve got is basically an adult milkshake that tastes like a trip to Dublin by way of the islands. Variations get their due too: add some mint or espresso, drizzle chocolate syrup or caramel, or even serve it frozen. However you shake it, the Irish Mudslide is proof that a cocktail can be rich, playful, and just a little indulgent—exactly the kind of drink that makes three minutes feel like a holiday.
