The Cosmopolitan
The classic Cosmopolitan is a simple combination Absolut Vodka, orange-flavoured liqueur, lime juice, and cranberry juice. Add a twist of sweet, fragrant orange peel and you’re set! This recipe creates a fresh, bright and slightly tart cocktail, with the perfect amount of sweetness. It's a classic for every at-home bartender to know, and easy enough to shake up for guests or to make just for yourself.
1 | Add Absolut Vodka, lime juice, orange-flavoured liqueur, cranberry juice, and ice to a cocktail shaker. |
2 | Shake until the shaker feels very cold. |
3 | Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. |
4 | Garnish with an orange peel. |
5 | Cheers! |
Pro-tip:
For an extra burst of citrus flavour, peel the orange over the filled cocktail glass. This way, the orange liquid sprays into the glass.
