An elderly friend died last year and among other things I inherited a couple of bottles of Creme de Menthe. For anyone unfamiliar, it's bright green and very minty -- 60 proof / 30% alcohol by volume. I'm not a regular drinker, and I am one of those weirdos that believes in waste-not, want-not, so I felt obligated to find a way to (slowly) consume it. My eventual choice was to pour a shot or two over a bowl of chocolate ice cream -- not bad, compare to mint chocolate-chip ice cream, with a little kick.
Any other suggestions?

I have memories of eating something like this as a child, though I seem to remember it setting in the fridge rather than the freezer. Whatever the differences, my mom probably used less creme de menthe, or it evaporated somehow before being fed to kids. We called it grasshopper pie.

I've never had grasshopper pie but I have had a drink called a grasshopper.
