Ep. 53: Greenhorn and Grinchy Marg - You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch

What in the heck is a Greenhorn? A new cocktail that is sure to be a classic. No, seriously, this cocktail WILL BE a classic. Created by Bobby Heugle, the architect of Houston’s cocktail scene. This week we introduce you to a new liqueur, Midori - and yes, you need to know Midori. We would talk about it if it wasn't good. Turns out, it pairs well with Tequila - trust us. We also meet up with Suze, a bitter friend who makes everything better. Stick around for the history behind the Greenhorn and Houston’s cocktail scene.  Greenhorn Cocktail 1.25 oz of blanco tequila (quality tequila from the highlands of Jalisco - El Tesoro or Puntagave) 1 oz Midori .75 oz Suze Stir in mixing glass, strain into coupe glass, garnish with a green cherry (oh, you know you want to try it) Grinchmas Margarita: 1.5 oz tequila blanco .75 oz Midori, some like to use 1 oz - up to you! 1 oz pineapple juice .75 oz lime juice .5 oz orange liqueur Add to a cocktail shaker, add ice and shake.
