Kcal: 206

Ingredients:

  • 25ml single cream
  • 25ml white crème de cacao (White Liqueur)
  • 25ml crème de menthe (Mint Liqueur) 
  • Ice cubes
  • Mint leaves
  • 25g melted chocolate

Description:

One of if not the best-looking cocktails ever! it is perfect on display at a Halloween party, at a random girls' night, or any occasion. The name of the cocktail comes from the color that you are left with after mixing the different liqueurs - the drink was first served in Louisiana in 1918 and has since been a must-have!

Instructions:

  1. Start by making the garnish for the cocktail. Grab a few mint leaves and dip the stalk in the melted chocolate, holding the upper leaves gently. Leave them to set on a plate or tray as you finish making the cocktail.
  2. Now, fill a cocktail shaker with ice and then pour in the two liqueurs and cream. Shake hard until the outside of the cocktail shaker is cold. Now strain into a cocktail glass or a coupe. Grabbing the mint leaves from the side, place them inside the cocktail.
  3. All done, enjoy!

Tips:

There aren't many different things you can do to the cocktail to make it any better, you do not have to add the mint leaves if you are not a fan of mint. The cocktail is meant to be simple and delicious - you can make it your own by adding different ingredients to it if you please.

Variations:

There are a few different ways people enjoy having the grasshopper cocktail and here are some of the best variations:

  • Frozen Grasshopper - Adding mint ice cream makes it a more dessert-like drink.
  • After Eight Grasshopper - Adding a layer of dark chocolate liqueur to the crème de menthe, crème de cacao and cream.
  • Girl Scout Cookie - Substituting the crème de menthe with peppermint schnapps.

A truly amazing sweet cocktail for the best Halloween party!

I want to write this testimony regarding The Great Odunga who made me win $1 million Dollars in the 2024 lottery of Aug. 5. My name is Lynne Kannuan and I am from Laos, Iowa, USA. I won this Powerball lottery in Webster City, US and I am not much of a lottery player because I don’t check my lottery ticket until about a week or two and Chief Dr. Odunga changed my life both for family and friends. I will put his email first for those who comprehend my write up to contact Great Odunga to win the lottery at his email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com for he is a real spell caster. I won the lottery of $1 million USD and to the press my comment was “Not too much, Not too little, just right”. I contacted Great Odunga through my friend who first contacted him to help her get her fertility issues solved and she is now a mother of twins boys for over 2 years but truth be told, I never believed lottery can be won through spells until now. She told me to contact Great Odunga to help me win the lottery through spells and I did. To my surprise a week later, I had won the Powerball of $1,000,000 USD. The winning numbers in the Aug. 5 Powerball drawings were: 29-42-44-51-54 and Powerball 12. It’s a great achievement to me and I must post this testimony to recommend the Great Odunga to everyone who reads my write up. It was my friend who called me to check my ticket to realize I had won the Powerball Lottery. I am grateful to God to be a recent lottery winner with my name on the Powerball blog. You should contact Chief Dr. Odunga Email: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and also Whats-App message him on +2348167159012
