Ep. 53: Greenhorn and Grinchy Marg - You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch

What in the heck is a Greenhorn? A new cocktail that is sure to be a classic. No, seriously, this cocktail WILL BE a classic. Created by Bobby Heugle, the architect of Houston’s cocktail scene. This week we introduce you to a new liqueur, Midori - and yes, you need to know Midori. We would talk about it if it wasn't good. Turns out, it pairs well with Tequila - trust us. We also meet up with Suze, a bitter friend who makes everything better. Stick around for the history behind the Greenhorn and Houston’s cocktail scene.

1.25 oz of blanco tequila (quality tequila from the highlands of Jalisco - El Tesoro or Puntagave)

Stir in mixing glass, strain into coupe glass, garnish with a green cherry (oh, you know you want to try it)
