Answers:
The Grinch
The Grinch, with its hideous appearance, is a repulsive creature!. So why create a cocktail inspired by that monster!? The Grinch’s color scheme actually looks appealing when carried by an alcoholic beverage!. The cocktail’s pale green base and red garnish bring a balance of elegance and mystery, which you will surely enjoy!.
