Mini Grasshopper Parfaits + Epica Cocktail Muddler Review

March 4, 2014 By Becky 10 Comments

Disclosure: I received this product as part of an advertorial.
I thought about calling these mini grasshopper fools, but that sounded like a bit much.  
Have you ever tried a fool?  It’s an old-fashioned dessert consisting of pureed or mashed fruit, usually berries, folded into sweetened whipped cream.  I made a strawberry moscato fool last spring, and it was delicious. These parfaits are similar to fools, but with mint instead of fruit.  They’re the perfect way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day (or any day).
