Description

The Grinch Drink is a vibrant, festive green cocktail perfect for holiday parties. It features melon liqueur, lemon-lime soda, and orange juice for a refreshing, sweet-tart flavor. This eye-catching Grinch cocktail adds a touch of Seuss-inspired fun to any celebration.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 oz Midori (melon liqueur)
  • 1 oz lemon-lime soda (Sprite or 7Up)
  • 1 oz fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 oz vodka (optional)
  • Maraschino cherries, for garnish
  • Ice cubes
  • Non-Alcoholic Option: Replace Midori with green fruit punch and skip the vodka for a kid-friendly Grinch mocktail.

Instructions

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker or mason jar with ice.
  2. Add Midori, lemon-lime soda, orange juice, and vodka if using.
  3. Shake gently for 10 seconds until chilled.
  4. Strain into a glass filled with ice.
  5. Garnish with a maraschino cherry and enjoy immediately.
  6. For a batch version (serves 8): Mix 1 cup Midori, 2/3 cup vodka, and 2/3 cup orange juice ahead of time. Chill and add 2 cups lemon-lime soda right before serving to maintain fizz. Serve with cherries and ice.

Notes

  • Use fresh orange juice for a brighter, less sugary flavor.
  • Shake gently to preserve the soda’s fizz.
  • For punch bowls, float orange slices and cherries for presentation.
  • Mix base ingredients up to 1 day in advance; add soda and ice before serving.
  • Enhance the Christmas look with red sugar rims or lime wedges.
