When Day Is Done

Perfect time to sip a Stinger.

The Stinger is  a very old cocktail invented around the year 1900. It was a very popular drink during Prohibition. It is suspected this was so because the Crème de Menthe successfully trumped the taste of cheap counterfeit booze.

The Stinger is a very simple drink to make. Do not make this drink with green Crème de Menthe. Also, be warned, you will either love this cocktail or absolutely hate it.

  • 1 ½ ounces of Brandy
  • ½ ounce of white Crème de Menthe
  • Combine ingredients in mixing glass over cracked ice.
  • Mix and strain in a chilled cocktail  glass.
