The only Grasshopper I consume:
(My Grandmother rarely drank, but when she did it was this)
Classic Grasshopper
1 ½ ounces* crème de cacao
1 ½ ounces crème de menthe
2 ounces heavy cream**
For the garnish: Shaved chocolate (optional)
Place all ingredients in a cocktail shaker. Add 2 handfuls of ice and shake until cold.
Strain into a cocktail glass. Top with shaved chocolate if desired.
When I was a young Marine, a bar I used to frequent had a BIG chart of mixed drinks posted on the wall.
It had them all in alphabetical order with their prices.
I tried to do the list one night after duty.
I never made it to ‘G’ which was Grasshopper......................
I will buy a shot glass with a grasshopper 🦗 on it.
Whiskey neat for me
I remember having Green Grasshopper ice cream as a kid. It was a special treat!
Bkmk
Sounds good! I don’t drink except on rare occasions either but I would like to try that drink for dessert.
