Ingredients
- 5 Ounces 7UP or any lemon-lime soda

- Then add in two ounces of Midori.
- Top off the glass with about 5 ounces of 7UP (can substitute with Sprite or similar lemon-lime soda).

Notes
- Potter’s Melon Liqueur can be substituted for Midori Melon Liqueur and will give the Grinch green signature color. The taste will differ slightly.
- Grinch cocktails are best served immediately as the soda can go flat if made in advance.
- Do not prepare in a shaker to keep the soda fizz. It is best to gently stir the cocktail to mix the components.
- For a stronger drink, replace the 7UP with another ounce of either the vodka or Midori, whichever you prefer.
- For an iceless drink, chill the 7up, Midori, and Vodka before preparing the cocktail.
