RECIPE BACKSTORY
Grasshopper Pie is a Mills family summertime favorite! The real pie has a sweet, rich marshmallow-based ice cream made from whipped cream, crème de menthe, and crème de cacao. This lovely mix is then left to freeze in a crisp chocolate wafer crust. To say this pie is scrumptious is an understatement — it’s magnificent! In our Grasshopper Pie Latte recipe, we’ve tried to replicate this creamy, flavorful treat in a latte that is equally delicious hot or cold. Enjoy!
