What does Grasshopper taste like?
Vanilla and dark chocolate get a cool peppermint lift, echoing the classic minty dessert it is named after. Here is how the flavors unfold, sip by sip:
Vanilla leads — soft, smooth sweetness. It is the flavor you notice before anything else.
Dark Chocolate fills the center — deep cocoa richness, rounding out the sip.
Peppermint closes it out — a cool mint lift, the note that stays with you after the sip.
That balance is the whole point of this combination — no single flavor carries it alone. If it sounds like your kind of drink, the exact words to order it are right below.
How to order Grasshopper at 7 Brew
You will not find “Grasshopper” printed on the official menu board, so do not order by the name alone. Order by base + size + flavors, in that order. Say this at the speaker:
“Can I get a medium iced breve with vanilla, dark chocolate and peppermint?”
That one sentence is the whole recipe — no secret code needed. If you are ordering for a group, give each drink as its own full sentence so nothing gets mixed up.
Want a lighter version?
Ask for the same flavors in a latte instead of a breve. A breve is made with half-and-half, so the latte version keeps the flavor but drinks noticeably lighter. And if you need it without the buzz, ask whether your stand can build it with decaf espresso.

| Base | Caffeine | How It Changes Grasshopper | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breve | Yes | Half-and-half makes it rich and creamy, and the peppermint lingers longest. The original way. | Most people — start here |
| Latte | Yes | Regular milk keeps it lighter, so the vanilla reads more clearly. | Everyday coffee drinkers |
| Cold Brew | Yes | Smooth, less acidic coffee base; the flavors sit on top instead of blending in. | Iced coffee fans, warm days |
| Blended (Chiller style) | Yes | Frozen and thick — turns the whole combination into a dessert-shake texture. | A full dessert, not a coffee break |
Make it yours: 4 easy adjustments
- More vanilla? Ask for extra vanilla — it is the lead flavor, so one extra pump changes the whole drink.
- Deeper finish? Ask for extra peppermint and the last note of every sip gets stronger.
- Too sweet? Ask for it half sweet. This combination still reads clearly at half strength.
- Ordering a large? Ask for an extra pump so the balance holds up, especially with light ice.

Grasshopper FAQs
What is in Grasshopper at 7 Brew?
Vanilla, Dark Chocolate and Peppermint — those are the flavors in this combination, added to the base of your choice. Most people get it as a breve, hot, iced or blended.
Is Grasshopper on the official 7 Brew menu?
No. It is a secret menu combination, not a printed menu item. That is why you order it by naming the base, size and the flavors instead of asking for it by name only.
Does Grasshopper have caffeine?
Yes — it is built on espresso, so every coffee base version contains caffeine. If you need it without, ask your stand whether they can make it with decaf espresso.
Can I get a sugar-free Grasshopper?
This combination is not listed with a sugar-free version. Ask your stand which of its syrups they stock sugar-free — sometimes part of the combination can be swapped.
How much does Grasshopper cost?
A medium (20oz) is around $6.45. Prices are set by each stand, so your total can differ slightly by location and by any extra flavors or shots you add.
Can I get it hot?
Yes. Coffee-based secret menu drinks can be made hot, iced or blended — just say which style you want when you order.
