Mixed Eats' fast food menu is unlike that of most food trucks and features favorites like [donuts and burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/donut-burger-1) that are infused with boozy ingredients. Made with familiar spirits and brews like [Guinness beer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/last-crumb-x-guinness) and [Baileys Irish Cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rich-products-and-baileys), Mixed Eats' burgers and donuts will appeal to fearless foodies who are looking to indulge.

While the food truck's burger menu features a Guinness-spiked burger that fuses the beer's rich flavors with a succulent patty and garnishes, its Baileys Oreo donut is a favorite among patrons with a serious sweet tooth.

Known for its caffeinated and boozy flavor pairing, Irish Cream Baileys is blended with sugary Oreos to create a donut dessert experience unlike any other on the market.
