The Grinch

When Theodor Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, wrote the children's book How the Grinch Stole Christmas in 1957, he probably had no idea that grinch would soon enter the general lexicon of English. Like Charles Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge (whose name has become synonymous with miser), the Grinch changes his ways by the story's end, but it's the unreformed character who "hated Christmas! The whole Christmas season!" who sticks in our minds. The ill-natured Grinch, with his heart "two sizes too small," provides us with a lively symbol of someone we love to hate, and his name has thus come to refer to any disgruntled grump who ruins the pleasure of others.

He then gave him a pat on the back, and they joined the others. They all traveled down the mountain back to the North Pole where the Yeti apologized to the townspeople and the elves for his intense weather. He agreed to lighten up the snowfall and raise the temperatures, and everyone cheered once again. They all then drank hot chocolate, ate cookies, and sang Christmas songs together. Everything was right once again. The Grinch had often wondered if, deep down, he was a good grinch or a bad grinch. And now he finally knew.

Whether you're a grinch around the holidays or not or not, I think you'll love my newest cocktail creation. The Grinch cocktail is a light and fruity alcoholic beverage that's perfect for the holidays.

The cherry on top represents the grinch's heart before it grew three sizes that day. And you're looking for a family-friendly version, try my non-alcoholic grinch punch recipe at your next Christmas party.

I'd suggest that if you enjoy fruity cocktails, you may prefer the taste of triple sec in your grinch cocktail. Triple sec is orange liqueur, and will add a light citrus flavor to your holiday cocktail. 041b061a72
