An Adaptable Cosmopolitan Cocktail image

In case you couldn't help but wonder, this more refined Cosmopolitan is not a robust red but a dusty pink, deeply chilled, and walks the line between sweet and sour. You can even shed the notion that it must be served in a martini glass, and serve it in a coupe or smaller cocktail glass instead. Whatever your vessel, tuck it in the freezer for about 10 minutes to properly chill before pouring.

This cocktail is the perfect balance of sweet and tart. It's not too sweet, but it's not too sour either. It's just right!

I'm not a huge fan of cranberry juice, but this cocktail changed my mind. The combination of flavors is so well-balanced that the cranberry juice is not overpowering at all.

I love the unique twist that this recipe adds to the classic cosmopolitan. The addition of fresh lime juice and St. Germain elderflower liqueur really takes it to the next level.
