Bols Peppermint Green Liqueur 70cl

Cold, crisp mint that wakes up the whole drink, plus that iconic green colour that makes cocktails look like trouble in the best way. This peppermint liqueur out of Amsterdam is built for mixing, especially when you want sweet mint flavour that doesn’t disappear the second you add chocolate, cream, or coffee.

If you’ve ever made a minty cocktail that tasted like vague sugar water, this fixes it. You get clear peppermint right away, then a candy-sweet middle, then a cooling finish that lingers just long enough to keep you going back for another sip.

• Nose: Bright peppermint candy, wintergreen, a clean sugar lift.
• Taste: Sweet mint hits first, then a deeper herbal mint note, with a cooling rush that plays great with cocoa and espresso.
• Finish: Long, chilly peppermint with a light sweet echo, like the last bite of a mint chocolate.

This is one of those bottles that earns permanent bar-cart residency because it’s ridiculously useful. It’s the classic pick for a Grasshopper, a solid move for a Mint Chocolate martini, and a small splash can flip an Espresso Martini into a mint-mocha vibe. It also loves dessert cocktails, think chocolate liqueur, cream liqueurs, or anything that leans cocoa-forward.

What makes it worth your shelf space is how direct it is. The peppermint flavour is loud and clear, the sweetness is candy-like (not syrupy), and the cool finish keeps richer mixers from feeling heavy. If you like mint anything, this is the bottle that lets you dial in that flavour with confidence.

From Amsterdam, it’s part of a city-with-a-barscene kind of spirits culture, practical, mix-friendly, and made for people who like to play around with drinks at home. It’s also a handy “rescue ingredient” when a cocktail needs brightness, a little sweetness, and a clean, refreshing lift.

Fun Fact: Bols traces its roots back to Amsterdam in 1575, which makes it one of the oldest spirits brands still in the game.
