Description
This cocktail is like Christmas in a glass… if Christmas were wrapped in snark, sprinkled with sass, and shaken with a little extra chaos. Its vibrant green hue, courtesy of a Grinch-inspired twist, will make even the most jaded holiday hater crack a smile.
Ingredients
2 oz bourbon
1 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz simple syrup
A few drops of green food coloring
Charred lime wedge (for garnish)
Curled candy cane (for stirring mischief)
Instructions
Pour & Shake
Combine bourbon, lime juice, simple syrup, and a drop or two of green food coloring in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake it like you’re stealing Christmas.
Serve with Mischief
Strain into a crystal glass filled with fresh ice. Perch a charred lime wedge on the rim and add a curled candy cane for a playful twist.
Notes
Create the Scene
Set the glass on a tartan napkin surrounded by torn gift wrap, stolen ornaments, and a fuzzy Santa hat. Dim the lights for a moody, Grinch-approved vibe.
Enjoy
Sip this sour with a smug grin while plotting festive chaos. It’s the perfect cocktail for a holiday villain with a soft spot for bourbon.
