Wow, oh, wow! Looks sure can be deceiving! At first glance, this Grasshopper Sipper might look like a child’s birthday party treat turned drink. But believe us, this is an adult only, one-of-a-kind, and a very memorable twist. Fresh, minty, creamy, chocolatey, and a little frothy… need we say more?! Even though we set the stage for one, don’t make your friends green with envy! The Grasshopper Sipper can be doubled, or tripled, or even more, to be enjoyed and shared with other like-minded adults. We give you the green light to hop to it and start making this for your next hoppin’ good party or even just a quiet evening at home. And please don’t be deceived, there will probably be no sipping happening here… gulp, gulp, gulp… we know you are going to love it! But do us a favor and gulp responsibly. Enjoy!
