    How to Make the Grasshopper Cocktail
    The Grasshopper Cocktail was apparently created by Philibert Guichet Jr., the owner of Tujaque's bar in New Orleans. As the story goes, it was submitted as an entry to a New York cocktail contest which was held, amazingly enough, in 1928 just before Prohibition was repealed. It is reported to have won second place. (Source: Roy F. Guste, Jr. "The Restaurants of New Orleans") Some other sources refer to the contest happening in 1919 however, just prior to Prohibition. However since one of the reported judges was Walter Winchell, who's career didn't really start until 1920, it is more likely that the contest happened during Prohibition.

    Mr. Hess serves this cocktail in a champagne coupe glass. The grasshopper cocktail at Tujaque's in New Orleans is served in a tall, stemmed wine glass. The Tujaque's recipe also includes White Creme De Menthe, and whole milk.

    I've actually made this drink twice now. The first one was about a month ago, and the second time was last night. This time I decided to add a dash of chocolate bitters( I used Fee brother's), and I think it made it taste even better it gave the drink a slight chocolate flavor.

    I have made plenty of grasshoppers and they are delicious. Sometimes I would add Bailey's Irish Cream to the mix, decadent.

  • @heav3n1rIsh

    try this recipe!
    45ml of creme de cacao
    10ml of creme de menthe
    20ml of creamer
    20ml of milk
    dash of simple syrup
    using reverse dry shake. it really does make this drink taste a slightly less sweeter than the original 1:1:1 version
