So a grasshopper walks into a bar...
This week we're talking about the Grasshopper cocktail. Not as popular these days but can be considered a classic in it's own right. It dates back 80+ years and has seen multiple ups and downs in its popularity. It even finished 2nd place in a cocktail contest when it was invented. Tastes like a chocolate mint milkshake!

My mom has been drinking these my entire life, and I'm in my 50! She started drinking alcohol in the late '50's, when my father was in the ARMY. The stories of the military wives parties on base are famous! I'm getting her a nice Mint Chocolate liquor for Christmas, so she can have her favorite drink in her favorite chair at home🙂

@BarTalkCocktails 4 года назад

I’m sure she will appreciate that immensely. Have a wonderful Christmas!

As a child of the '60s I recall visiting a favorite uncle around 1965 and all the kids and men folk went out to the lake for the day. My mom and aunt stayed home to relax and later do some dinner prep ..... well apparently after several grasshoppers dinner prep took some unusual turns and family history was made. I believe we ended up ordering take out ..... Great video - love your production values and the all the history.

Ha great story thanks for sharing. Sounds like something that would happen if I were hosting a dinner party! Thanks for watching, cheers!

My grandmother used to play "Dirty Sally" for Old Miner Days at the Robin Hood Inn in Big Bear California in the 1970s. She used to let me sit at the bar and drink Roy Rodgers. But every now and again she'd give me a sip of her Grasshopper. Great video!

I'm green with envy. Hmmm... The Envy would be a good name for a cocktail. Chartreuse for the color? Midori? (Midori can get overpowering, however.)

@ibnkhaldoun4319 4 года назад

so for the dirty grasshopper, it's 1 part kahlua, one part crème de menthe, & 1 part milk? Or 1 part for the first two, then milk to max out the remaining volume of the glass?

@BarTalkCocktails 4 года назад

That's a good question. The great thing about making cocktails is, you can adjust your drink ingredients as you like it. Personally, I like a 1:1:1: ratio. But that's me... Remember, nothing's ever written in stone. Just have fun experimenting. You'll find out what tastes right for you. Cheers!

@its1110 4 года назад

Ha ha! A bit of "praying" mantis sneaking in there. :)

@remcovanleeuwen8727 3 года назад

I think if you replace the creme menth by midori or pisang among its even better , not sure what to call it then

@BarTalkCocktails 3 года назад

When you sub out Crème de menthe for melon liqueur it's called a Marijuana Milkshake and is usually served as a shot. As far as the name is concerned, I have no idea why it's called that considering there is no cannabis in this drink. Maybe there should be... If you sub out the Crème de menthe for Pisang Ambon we're entering Banshee territory. Cheers!

@BBarNavi 3 года назад

Can I use white CdM and just add green food coloring?

@BarTalkCocktails 3 года назад

You could, however, food colouring dye is usually made with chemicals derived from petroleum, a crude oil product. You could make a white Grasshopper. It tastes the same as a green one. Although, colour is still important in a classic Grasshopper. Cheers!

Hey Bruce can you do the AMF?

@BarTalkCocktails 6 лет назад

I think this cocktail would be a gas to make. The only problem is the Tequila. I haven't had a drop since '79. By the end of the summer, maybe into the early fall, I'll tell you why Tequila and I don't mix well together. Until then, keep checking back because I'd love to make an AMF. Cheers!

@leonelyvazquez559 6 лет назад

Lol, I understand tequila and I didn't get along either but living 4 hours away from where they make it I learned to love it especially the Herradura Selección Suprema. Also I made the Rusty Nail and Martini stirred not shaken on Saturday and WoW. Cheers from Mexico.
