THE THIN MINT COCKTAIL

THIN MINT COCKTAIL

1 ounce Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur

1 ounce Crème de Menthe

Chocolate syrup

Milk

Whipped Cream

It’s a long seven months until it’s Girl Scout cookie time again. For those of you who can’t wait that long for a taste of the Thin Mint cookies, there is the THIN MINT COCKTAIL. To make it, put equal parts Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur and Crème de Menthe into a cocktail shaker, add ice, a good squeeze of chocolate syrup, about ½ cup of milk and whipped cream. Shake it up and strain it into a small cocktail glass. Garnish with some more whipped cream.

The first thing you notice about the THIN MINT COCKTAIL is its weird, grassy-green color. If I didn’t know any better, I would have thought it was a shot of wheatgrass. The second thing you notice, after you take a sip, is that it tastes exactly like a Girl Scout Thin Mint cookie. It would work great as an after-dinner treat or a teeny-booper shot. It was creamy and different, but very minty too. Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur is special on its own as well, or when mixed with Baileys over ice. I used up the last of mine in the THIN MINT COCKTAIL, then cried to the blue moon.
