My version varies only slightly from the official recipe:
Frozen Grasshopper recipe

Frozen Mudslide
1 oz. vodka
1 oz. coffee liqueur
1 oz. Irish cream liqueur
1 scoop vanilla ice cream
Blend all ingredients, and pour in a chilled old-fashioned glass.

Wow, that sounds really good! I am going to try this soon!

I like a garnish that I can eat. Mint leaves are in the same category as parsley.

I've had them after they'd been dipped in a little beaten egg white, then in sugar and chilled Alice and they were a delicious edible garnish.

Chocolate is my friend. You can have my share of mint leaves.

Good idea. I think Alice would approve.

I dunno, does that mean I have to sacrifice ALL the chocolate to you and only ever have the mint leaves? I don't think I could do that Alice!

I eat mint fresh from the plant and I love it in drinks, salads and cooking but I know it's not for everyone. I'm guessing it's not Alice's thing.

People still eat Ben and Jerry's?

Haggan Daz is far better.
