The Grasshopper Cocktail is a quick and easy After Dinner Cocktail perfect to end a dinner party in a great way throughout the year but especially for the Holiday season.

The history of the Cocktail Grasshopper is quite uncertain as there are those who trace the birth of this Cocktail to New Orleans and those who trace it to London. Be that as it may, since 1962 it has been officially recognized by the prestigious IBA.

Ready in just 5 minutes with only 3 ingredients, it is one of those cocktails that is also well suited to be consumed as an alcoholic dessert and is sure to win over even the most discerning palates. A sweet, fresh yet enveloping cocktail that you can customize, deviating a bit’ from the original recipe, with a grating of dark chocolate.

A tip, to enjoy the Grasshopper Cocktail we suggest you put the cups in which you will serve it at least 2 hours before making the Cocktail in the freezer. The colder they are, the more they will enhance the taste of this special cocktail.
