Drink Recipes - Cosmopolitan

A Cosmopolitan is a cocktail made with vodka, Cointreau or Triple Sec, cranberry juice, and fresh-squeezed lime juice or sweetened lime juice. Informally, it is referred to as a Cosmo.

The Cosmopolitan is usually served in a cocktail glass, also called martini glasses. For this reason, the drink is sometimes mistakenly categorized as a type of martini.

Using high-quality vodka and triple sec or Cointreau with pure cranberry juice will result in a clean-tasting drink.

Ingredients

3 parts (1½ measures/6 tsp) Absolut Citron or other vodka
2 parts (1 measure/1½ tbsp) Cointreau or triple sec
2 parts (1 measure/1½ tbsp) cranberry juice
1 part (½ measure/2 tsp) lime juice

The ingredients are to be shaken well with ice and strained into a cocktail glass. A wedge of lime, or a twist of orange or lemon peel, is used to garnish.

Variations

One variation is to squeeze a lime wedge into the chilled cocktail glass instead of including it with the ingredients to be shaken.
The original version calls for Rose's lime cordial instead of lime juice, and Triple Sec instead of Cointreau.
Sour mix may be substituted for either type of lime juice.
