This simple, tasty cocktail blends the honeydew flavor of Midori with lemon juice and simple syrup.  It gets its name the Grinch from its green color.  It’s easy to make one drink at a time.  But you can also mix up a pitcher of it before a party.

2 ounces Midori
½ ounce lemon juice
1 teaspoon simple syrup

Instructions

Fill cocktail shaker with ice, and pour in all the ingredients.

Shake well until chilled.
Strain into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a maraschino cherry.
