A really Amazing Channel ! As a french i'm really surprise how Many things are in french in the cocktail World (like this "crème de menthe") Anyway great vidéo again, thanks Rob !
I made this some years ago. I still have most of a bottle. I guess I don't really have much call for it. I just tasted it and it still tastes good years later, but the color has turned brown for sure. I'm guessing yours will lose its pale green in a few weeks as well. good stuff!
The color will darken slightly after a few months (I assume it has something to do with the chlorophyll breaking down) but it’s still very good! This is my first time making crème de menthe but many of my fruit liqueurs have been shelf stable for beyond 2 years! After a year, color tends to breakdown and the flavor mellows a bit.. but none of my liqueurs have ever “gone bad”
This is great. And does offer options that if I grow chocolate mint, mojito mint, peppermint I can create the liqueur for that type!!!
Nice! I’ve never tried other mints beyond spearmint, peppermint and mojito
Holy green magic trick batman! That was fun
🤣 thanks!
Sounds delicious Rob!! This is a must make home made syrup for Christmas 🎄 Ho Ho Ho!! lol!! 😂 Awesome video!!
I’ll definitely be ready for some holiday minty cocktails!!
Looking forward to see what cocktails you make with it because I have a bottle that I never use. Making it looks easy and fun though!
Yeah, I’ll definitely come up with a selection for the holidays! Immediately, the stinger comes to mind, mint, and cognac! It’s a great one

Thanks! It is interesting how many liqueurs adopt the French name… crème de mûre, crème de banane, etc… I wonder why that is 🤷♂️
Cheers!

That’s awesome! Good to know it’ll last! My berry liqueurs from 3 years ago still tastes great but the vibrant colours have faded also
I can't remember the last time I used creme de menthe. Might be the dustiest bottle on my shelf.
In my bar, that honor belongs to hpnotiq 🤣
How long will it stay shelfstable and keep its color for giving out and gifts?
