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).]

    Eating asparagus changes the smell of urine

    How much creme de menthe to get an effect? Experiments required. For science!

    In the US there's a major holiday coming up this week that revolves around eating and drinking too much. Perhaps Soylentils can experiment with different concepts and re-convene to compare notes after the holiday and horrific hangovers have passed.
