Cosmopolitan

The cosmopolitan, or "cosmo," is a classic cocktail that perfectly balances fruity, sweet, and tart flavors. Made with cranberry juice, fresh lime juice, vodka, and a splash of orange liqueur, it’s as simple to prepare as it is elegant. Just mix the ingredients, shake well with ice, and strain into a martini glass for a crisp, refreshing drink. While many credit Sex and the City for skyrocketing the cosmo’s popularity—Carrie Bradshaw’s supposed signature drink—it might not have been featured as often as some remember. Nonetheless, the cosmopolitan remains a timeless favourite.
