Yield 1 People

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 tablespoons citrus Vodka
3 tablespoons Pacifica Culinaria Black Currant Agave Syrup
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
Lemon twist for garnish

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients except lemon twist in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake well. Pour through sieve into a well chilled martini glass. Garnish with Lemon twist.

Tips:

  • Use fresh black currants. Fresh black currants have a more intense flavor and aroma than frozen or dried currants.
  • Use a good quality vodka. The vodka is the base of the cosmopolitan, so it's important to use a good quality vodka that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Make sure your cranberry juice is fresh. Fresh cranberry juice has a brighter, more tart flavor than cranberry juice that has been sitting around for a while.
  • Don't over-shake the cosmopolitan. Over-shaking the cosmopolitan will make it watery and dilute the flavor.
  • Garnish the cosmopolitan with a twist of lime. The lime twist adds a refreshing citrus flavor to the cosmopolitan.

Conclusion:

The black currant cosmopolitan is a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you're hosting a party or just looking for a new cocktail to try, the black currant cosmopolitan is a great choice.
