THE GRASSHOPPER MARTINI
Chocolate, Mint and Creamy - You Can't Miss


Ingredients: White Creme de Cacao, Green Creme de Menthe, Heavy Cream, Mint Leaf, Chocolate Shavings



My sister loved Grasshoppers in her twenties. The only reason I remember this is the pale green color of the drink - as a kid I thought it was pretty and looked like a green milkshake.

The Grasshopper is kind of a milkshake for adults - it's make with cream, has a chocolate minty taste and it really is the palest shade of green. It is also one classic cocktail that usually is served in a martini glass - so I'm more legit with this retro cocktail so popular in the fifties and early sixties.

The Grasshopper is a pretty decent dessert cocktail and very elegant looking when you add my personal touch of the mint leaf and chocolate shaving garnishes!

To make a Flying Grasshopper: Simply substitute vodka for the cream in the above recipe!

Who gave me my very first taste of a cocktail when I was ten then became my Rum & Coke buddy in our adult years. Pat, I'll never drink a Rum and Coke without thinking of you:
