Cement mixer (drink)

A cement mixer is a shot drink. It often consists of:

• 1 part Baileys Irish Cream (other types of alcoholic Irish cream may be substituted)
• 1 part lime juice (lemon juice may be substituted)

The drink is generally ingested by taking the shot of Lime juice, swirling it inside your mouth, then taking the shot of Irish cream and mixing both liquids either by swirling them around in the mouth or shaking the head.^[1] The drink may also be combined as a layered shot, as the lime juice is less dense than most brands of Irish cream.

The acidic lime juice causes the cream-based Baileys to curdle. The curdled Baileys does not taste sour, but it does rapidly gain viscosity and stick to the inside of the drinker's mouth and teeth, reminiscent of cement. For a sweeter taste, two shot glasses, one of lemonade and one of Baileys, can be used.
