Great martini or cosmo depending where you live! I use Ciroc vodka which isn't like any other vodka because it is distilled from fine French grapes. You can actually taste the grape in the vodka!

This is a great drink for folks who like the presentation of a martini, but can't stomach the strong alcohol taste. The cranberry juice takes the bite right out of this drink and gives it a smooth taste.

Categories     Citrus     Cocktail Party

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 ounces Absolut Citron vodka (about 2 1/2 tablespoons)
1/4 ounce Rose's lime juice (about 3/4 tablespoon)
1/4 ounce triple sec or Cointreau (about 3/4 tablespoon)
1/4 cup cranberry juice
1 cup ice cubes
Garnish: lime twist

Steps:

  • In a cocktail shaker combine all ingredients. Shake well and strain into a Martini glass. Garnish drink with lime.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the cocktail will taste. This is especially important for the citrus juices, which should be freshly squeezed.
  • Chill your glass: A chilled glass will help to keep your cocktail cold and refreshing. You can chill your glass by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes before using.
  • Measure your ingredients carefully: This is important for getting the right balance of flavors. Using too much or too little of one ingredient can ruin the cocktail.
  • Stir, don't shake: Shaking a cocktail can dilute it and make it cloudy. Stirring is the best way to mix a Cosmopolitan Martini, as it will keep the ingredients well-combined without diluting them.
  • Garnish with a twist of lime: A twist of lime is the traditional garnish for a Cosmopolitan Martini. It adds a bit of citrus flavor and aroma to the cocktail.
