Ingredients
Green Dirty Girl Scout
- 1/3 ounce (10 milliliters) Bailey's Irish Cream
- 1/3 ounce (10 milliliters) Crème de Cacao
- 1/3 ounce (10 milliliters) Crème de Menthe (green)
White Dirty Girl Scout
- 1 ounce (30 milliliters) Vodka
- 1 ounce (30 milliliters) Kahlua
- 1 ounce (30 milliliters) Bailey's Irish Cream
- 1 ounce (30 milliliters) Crème de Menthe (white)
Steps
Making a Green Dirty Girl Scout
- Fill a cocktail shaker two-thirds of the way with ice. You will be straining the ice out when you pour the final drink. If you'd like ice in your final drink, fill the glass with ice now.
- Add the Bailey's Irish Cream, green Crème de Menthe, and Crème de Cacao. For a stronger drink, add ½ ounce (10 milliliters) of Vodka.
- Close the shaker, and shake it for a few seconds. Keep your hand over the lid so that it does not accidentally pop off.
- Pour the mixture through a strainer into a highball glass. Take the lid off, and replace it with a strainer. Pour the mixture through the strainer, and into the glass.
- Serve. The Dirty Girl Scout is usually left un-garnished. If you'd like to make it look more interesting, however, you can add a few mint leaves on top.
Making a White Dirty Girl Scout
- Fill a highball glass with ice. Make sure you leave enough room for your cocktail.
- Pour the Vodka, Kahlua, Bailey's, and white Crème de Menthe into a cocktail shaker. If you'd like your drink extra cold, add a handful of ice into the shaker as well.
- Close the shaker, and shake it for a few seconds. Keep your hand over the lid so that it doesn't accidentally pop off.
- Take the lid off and pour the mixture over the ice in the glass. If you added ice into the shaker, you will need to pour the mixture through a strainer.
- Serve. The Dirty Girl Scout is typically left un-garnished, but you can top it with a few mint leave to make it look more interesting.
Making Other Types of Girl Scouts
- Try a traditional Girl Scout. Fill a cocktail shaker with ½ ounce (15 milliliters) Peppermint Schnapps, ½ ounce (15 milliliters) Dark Crème de Cacao, ½ ounce (15 milliliters) of Bailey's, and ½ once of whipping cream. Add 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) of green Crème de Menthe, and shake to mix. Strain the mixture over ice in a highball glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry, and serve.
- Try a Girl Scout Cookie if you'd like something more coffee-like. Fill a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice. Add ½ ounce (15 milliliters) of Bailey's, ½ ounce (15 milliliters) of Kahlua, and ½ ounce (15 milliliters) of Peppermint Schnapps. Shake for a few seconds to mix, then strain the mixture into a tall glass, and serve.
- Try a Dirty Girl Scout Cookie if you'd like something simple. Fill a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice. Add 2/3 ounces (20 milliliters) of Bailey's, and 1/3 ounces (10 milliliters) of green Crème de Menthe. Shake for a few seconds to mix, then strain into a highball glass, and serve.
- Try a Frozen Girl Scout if you like blended drinks. Fill a blender with a splash of milk, 1½ ounces (45 milliliters) of green Crème de Menthe, and 3 scoops of chocolate ice cream. Pulse the blender for a few seconds until everything is mixed, then pour into a tall glass, and serve.
- Try a Naughty Girl Scout if you'd like something more creamy. Fill a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice. Add 2 ounces (60 milliliters) of Kahlua, 1 ounce (30 milliliters) of Crème de Menthe, and 1 ounce (30 milliliters) of half-and-half. Shake for a few seconds to mix, then strain into a tall glass filled with ice. Garnish with some mint leaves and serve.
