So we are having a Mardi Gras party this weekend.
Actually it's a "Hillbilly Masquerade" :ebiggrin:

My plan is to make Purple, Gold, and Green liqueurs for my guests to enjoy.

I have already made some blueberry PD for the purple, and I'm doing orange creamsicle for the gold.

I need ideas for the green. I'd like something brite green like midori. My last resort is to just toss in some green apple jolly ranchers or some.similarly green colored candies. But I thought I'd see what kind ideas you guys have first.

Please keep in mind I have a couple quarts of 110 proof available and about 2 days to make this.

creme de menthe?

I'm sure TTB flavors would work also..

No idea a good recipe as I hate the stuff lol.

absinthe is another that's typically green but maybe not as bright green as you want?

Deffinitely not interested in absinthe. I hate anise and licorice. That Creme de Menthe doesn't look terrible.

Realistically anything could be green with some food dye.

You have any white dog? tint i green and mix with limeaid.

other than the food coloring.. and green color would be tasty.

You could also make a super juice from limes and the zest .. used malic and citric acid.. from memory.. or may only need citric.. look it up.
