The Grasshopper CocktailThe Grasshopper Cocktail

The Grasshopper Cocktail

Based on the original 1919 New Orleans recipe, our version shakes up cream, vanilla and mint with crème de cacao and crème de menthe — and tops it with chocolate shavings. It tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream, and it has a wonderful, icy texture.
