With the Steelers having a divisional game this week and coming off a loss last week, here are some drinks for the game.

I know with me I get more invested in divisional games. So to help with that you need a good drink.

The drink for this week is the Irish Trash Can.

Here are the ingredients for it.

  • 1 oz Blue Curacao
  • 1 oz Gin
  • 1 oz Light Rum
  • 1 oz Vodka
  • 1/2 oz Peach Schnapps
  • 1/2 oz Triple Sec
  • 1 Can Red Bull
  • 1/2 cup Ice

Severed in a pint glass. This is one of my favorite drinks for during the game besides a nice cold IC Light.

And if the game isn’t going the Steelers way, I’m going to mix in a Three Wise Men shot.

Here are the ingredients for it.

  • 1/2 oz Jack Daniels
  • 1/2 oz Jim Beam
  • 1/2 oz Johnny Walker

Shake with ice then strain in to a stones glass or shot glass.

Don’t for get to take water breaks when drinking and also mix in food.

And as always Here We Go Steelers!
