The Gripper Drink Recipe Instructions

The Gripper Recipe Preparation & Instructions:

Layer chilled ingredients in order: Jim, Baileys, Jack then Red Bull. Technically we like to add each ingredient chilled into the glass in order but you can chill the first 3 in a shaker and pour into the glass then top with the Red Bull.

The Gripper Recipe Information

Three buddies Sean, Chad & Tom invented this drink one magical night at a place called Trader Jacks in Eastlake, Ohio (Cleveland) in June of 2007. After almost a year in development, the stars aligned right and The Gripper was born. Inspiration came from a summer of painting together and using a primer called Gripper on anything and everything. So, after getting high on Gripper fumes all summer and missing the feeling we knew we had to create a shot to cure our fix. It wasn't easy, it had to be good and hard and it had to look like paint. Mission accomplished! It doesn't look pretty, but tastes oh so good! Trust us!
