Hummer Cocktails
Why are these cocktails called Hummers? It is because - one sip and you will hum!

Milk shakes for the grown-ups who like the idea of a milkshake but want something with a little kick! You could say that these are adult milkshakes! These are excellent adult summer drinks. Photo on the right is a Grasshopper Hummer.

When making any of the Hummer cocktails, let the ice cream soften some before using.

Optional: For a milder flavor, you may add some ice as desired.

Place all the ingredients (for the drink you select) in a blender and blend until smooth. The mixture will be thick like a milkshake. Traditionally these drinks are served in highball glasses, but I sometimes serve them in other types of glasses.

Each recipe makes 2 small servings or 1 larger serving. NOTE: I can very easily drink the whole batch myself!
