Grasshopper

The Grasshopper is a minty, creamy blast from the past—equal parts retro indulgence and dessert cocktail. Born in New Orleans in the 1910s and wildly popular in the 1950s–70s, this electric-green drink mixes crème de menthe, crème de cacao, and cream into a smooth, sweet, and refreshingly cool treat. No caffeine, no spirits—just pure liquid Andes mint. Whether you’re feeling nostalgic or just want a dessert that comes in a glass, the Grasshopper is here to charm.
