How to make The Grasshopper Cocktail

[@gangpardos3833]

You may not be the quickest bartender, but you’re an amazing entertainer. Keep the patrons coming back Bruce

[@BarTalkCocktails]

I’m quicker when I don’t need to explain things. If I was this slow at work I woulda been fired a long time ago, ha!

[@jeromesch.6078]

aww man this channel is the best thing ever, hahaha love this guy, what a legend !

[@BarTalkCocktails]

Thanks for watching Jerome, 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!

[@BarTalkCocktails]

Lovely story thanks for sharing.

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.

[@BarTalkCocktails]

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

[@DoubleBogeyHal]

My mom use to drink those. Not for me, but was a walk down memory lane.

[@BarTalkCocktails]

One of my mother’s favourites as well. Cheers!

[@Bassingal]

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]

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

[@kimwilliford6303]

I love chocolate mint drinks.

[@petmycat2720]

In Wisconsin all the ice cream drinks are still popular. Brandy Alexanders Pink Squirrels and Grass hoppers.

My 80 + year old mom says this drink is her favorite. I had to try one, it was yummy.

[@BarTalkCocktails]

That’s funny, I usually make this for my mom as well. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!

[@eddyeikdal6741]

I like your instinct to add some spice along with the chocolate.

[@BarTalkCocktails]

Not typically my kinda drink but it was pretty damn good. Cheers Eddy!

[@terryblackmore1420]

Loved the green ambiance. Another great vid. Looks yummy!

[@BarTalkCocktails]

+Terry Blackmore Thanks Terry, it is yummy give it a try! Cheers!

[@its1110]

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.)

[@s1234pro]

Making this for St. Patrick's Day! They were fabulous! Thank you so much! Now I need to know how to make a Pink Lady.

I think you should start the show with the piano each time.

I’m a little out of practice, I use to be so much better. I also play a mean saxophone in the sex on the beach episode. Ha! Thanks for watching!

Will try frozen grasshopper ✊

[@BarTalkCocktails]

Hope you gave it a go!

[@Juicy_wiwi]

@@BarTalkCocktails it was very good 👍 subscribed

[@ibnkhaldoun4319]

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]

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!

[@oneuniverseable]

For some reason this intro reminded me of an adult style, booze-oriented, Mr. Rodgers. Gonna make this for my wife.

[@BarTalkCocktails]

Ha. I get that comparison all the time.

[@remcovanleeuwen8727]

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

[@BarTalkCocktails]

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!

[@Bailaaaaaa]

Shake it like a Grasshopper hahahhaha!!!!

[@BarTalkCocktails]

I know.. it’s gets hard thinking on the spot all the time. Lol

[@BBarNavi]

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

[@BarTalkCocktails]

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!

[@BBarNavi]

@@BarTalkCocktails No worries boss, I've got organic food coloring!

[@leonelyvazquez559]

Hey Bruce can you do the AMF?

[@BarTalkCocktails]

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]

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.
