Stinger Cocktail

The Stinger Cocktail originated in the US in the 1890's and remained popular until the 1970's. This simple drink can be enjoyed as an aperitif or digestif as it is very minty. The recipe calls for white crème de menthe, but I thought using green crème de menthe would be a great adult beverage to serve during holiday festivities. Enjoy!
