from the alcoholic-mouthwash dept.

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?

[An Anonymous Editor suggested Creme de Menthe Brownies (located at the bottom of the page).]

    Jeez, three quarters of the way down the line before someone suggests Grasshoppers. As if there's anything else to do with a bottle of CdM. (Ok, there are [thespruceeats.com]... but Grasshopppers are the perfection of Creme de Menthe and anything else is a novelty drink (ok, so are Grasshoppers but at least they taste good).
