Oh baby.

CHOCOLATE? CHILLI? WATERMELON? Or maybe even an aul fresh Irish oyster?

Fuhgeddaboutit.

We all know the real Irish aphrodisiacs are more likely to be found lurking within the confines of a stuffy nightclub. Here are what we reckon gets Irish people in the mood the fastest.

2. The National Anthem

Feck! They’re playing it already! Time is running out. In the same way hunger is the best sauce, desperation is a great aphrodisiac.

3. Discovering you have at least 50 mutual friends

4. Getting it in (a round, that is)
