Ready to make a Cosmopolitan?

If you’ve ever watched Sex and the City and wondered, “What is in a cosmopolitan, anyway?” today’s post is for you. That show made this pink sweetini popular. Here’s how you make a cosmopolitan:

2 ounces vodka (some prefer citrus vodka)

1/2 ounce Triple Sec

3/4 ounce cranberry juice

1 ounce fresh lime juice

ice

citrus peel or slice

Pour the vodka, Triple Sec, and juices into a shaker with ice. Shake well, then strain into a martini glass. You may “flame” an orange peel across the top of the cocktail, or simply garnish with a slice or peel of orange or lime.
