It's not easy being green.

So your Uncle Giltron is still playing with his bottle of Green Chartreuse. After a year of trying to find it,by the Smoking Baboon I'm going to mix it. It's hard to find good recipes that use it because it's kinda rare,but I've got a pair for you I think you'll really like,provided you can find all the ingredients. Enjoy!

Mix #219 Swamp Angel

2oz rhum agricole blanc 1oz lime juice 1oz pineapple juice 3/4oz Green Chartreuse 1/2oz orgeat 1/2oz falernum 1/4oz allspice dram 2 dashes Angostura bitters

Shake or blend with ice and strain into glass with fresh ice(I shook it).

From Justin Oliver and Chad Austin on the Facebook group,Tiki Recipes,this is sweet with a creamy mouthfeel and lots of spice and herbs. It also has some real kick. An excellent cocktail with lots of flavor.

Mix #220 Vicious Whale

3/4oz Appleton Signature rum 3/4oz Rittenhouse rye* 3/4oz Green Chartreuse 3/4oz Giffard Banane Du Brasil** 3/4oz blue curacao 1/2oz Benedictine 3/4oz Don's Mix 3/4oz lime juice 2 dashes grapefruit bitters

Shake with ice and pour into glass. Top with a bit of grated nutmeg.

*I used Crown Royal. **I used Tepus Fugit Creme de Banane.

Created by Facebook user Johannes Oscarsson,and also posted to Tiki Recipes,this is another sweet,complex drink with a strong herbal finish. Another winner you should try.

So if you can find a bottle of Green Chartreuse,grab it,it's an excellent addition to your home bar. And follow my advice and you won't waste any.

And of course,i have to post some Kermit,cuz who who doesn't love the little green guy.
