I know we’re still celebrating autumn, but mid-November also means that Winter is Coming. (Game of Thrones, anyone?) After all, Starbucks has already switched to their festive red coffee cups and serving up Peppermint Mochas and Eggnog Lattes, so why can’t we start mixing up some colorful and holiday-themed cocktails too? Cue the bright green, minty Grasshopper.
Grasshopper
Ingredients:
1 ounce green Crème de Menthe
1 ounce white Crème de Cacao
1 ounce light cream (or half & half or whole milk)
Ice
Shake well with ice in a cocktail shaker. Strain and pour into a martini glass. Easy peasy!
Whip up a batch of these for your next holiday party and toast to the drink of choice of Raj on The Big Bang Theory. Enjoy what he likes to call a “sweet, green miracle” (to help enable him to talk to women). Cheers!
I love that pretty green color.
i do too! it’s so festive and perfect for the winter holidays (and st patricks day, i suppose). thanks for visiting!
That is definitely a drink promising a good night :D
It always reminds me of Raj from Big Bang Theory! :P
Cheers

Every time I watch Raj drink one of these, it makes me crave one of my own! :3
I love that drink. I haven’t had it since back in the 90’s, time for a revival:)
