Well I’m not a mixologist, but I’d assume you would replace the Irish cream with whisky (which is usually what Irish cream is made with), and omit the whipped cream.
It’s non-specific to queer culture. It’s been around for ages as a sort of funny bar standby or joke drink.
I encounted them first about 20 years ago in Canada. Had one for my 19th birthday at a random bar long before I came out as trans. Most of the time it’s a vehicle for the joke of someone saying they got you a blowjob for some kind of special occasion.
IDK, I’ve seen it at drag shows at three venues in the south. So anecdotal and maybe regional. I’ve also seen them purchased in straight bars for girls/bachelorette parties along the same vein as body shots or getting ‘straight’ girls to make out.
The way I’ve seen it done, for smaller drag shows where audience participation is possible. The hostess calls for virgins, and all the straight guy virgins are pointed out and have to come to the front and do the hands ree shot. Everyone catcalls and the room goes wild.
It’s really funny, and done with good intent, but you can tell the dudes have never been objectified that way.
I looked it up, it’s amaretto, Irish cream liqueur, and whipped cream. You take the shot without using your hands.
I’d do a few.
Is there an alternative for those who can’t consume dairy?

IDK, tell them your allergic to dairy and they’ll mix something else.
I imagined it’d be something like an alcoholic beverage. I don’t drink, tho, so…
The no-hands shot got me curious, though
I wonder if this blowjob is a general thing or specific to drag culture (can you tell I’m booz noob?)
