The three ingredients are creme de menthe, creme de cacao, and cream. I do not really have a favorite brand of any of these so I just use what I find at the store which just so happened to be these.

These two liqueur's with cream make a very clean and refreshing dessert cocktail. Here is the recipe.
1oz creme de menthe
1oz creme de cacao
1.5oz cream
Pour all ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake until fully chilled. Strain into a martini glass.
You may get some weird looks when you order one of these but don't let that sway you. You are a true cocktail drinker if you feel no shame drinking something that is cloudy and green. Be proud of the fact you know what you like.
See you all next week.
