Short green guys (commonly abbreviated to SGG) are drinks that can be made at level 20 Cooking, granting 120 Cooking experience. They heal 5 hitpoints, boost Strength by 5% + 1 levels, and reduce Attack by 2% - 3 levels. Short green guys are a good way to cheaply train without leaving the Gnome Stronghold, since they require only one type of fruit, have cheap ingredients, and only require one chopped/sliced item.

Trivia

• This might be a reference to a popular rule in drinking games, the "Little Green Man Rule," where people drinking must remove an invisible green man from their glasses before taking a drink.
• The name is also a reference to gnomes since they are short guys, and in RuneScape Classic had green skin.
