3/4 oz. Green Crème de Menthe
3/4 oz. White Crème de Cacao
3/4 oz. Light Cream

Directions:

In a shaker glass with ice, pour in crème de menthe, white crème de cacao and light cream.

Grasshoppers are a sweet, mint-flavored, after-dinner drink. The name of the drink is derived from its green color, which is provided by the green crème de menthe. The drink reputedly originated at Tujague's, a landmark bar in the French Quarter of New Orleans. It gained popularity during the 1950s and 1960s throughout the American South as a perfect way to top off a heavy meal taking advantages of mint’s naturally stomach settling effects.
