Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 ounces vodka (citrus flavor)
3/4 ounce Cointreau liqueur
3/4 ounce Chambord raspberry liquor
1 1/2 ounces cranberry juice
3/8 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
champagne

Steps:

  • Shake first five ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled glass; top with champagne.
  • Serve in a flute garnished with a flamed orange twist.

Tips:

  • Chill your ingredients: To ensure a refreshing and well-balanced Sparkling Cosmo, make sure to chill all your ingredients before mixing. This includes the vodka, cranberry juice, lime juice, Cointreau, and lime wedges.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice adds a vibrant and zesty flavor to the cocktail. Avoid using bottled or concentrated lime juice, as they can lack the same depth of flavor.
  • Garnish with a lime wedge: A lime wedge adds a touch of elegance and enhances the citrusy aroma of the Sparkling Cosmo. Make sure to remove the pith from the lime wedge before garnishing to avoid bitterness.
  • Adjust the sweetness: The sweetness level of the Sparkling Cosmo can be adjusted according to your preference. If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add an extra 1/2 ounce of Cointreau or simple syrup. Conversely, if you prefer a tarter drink, reduce the amount of Cointreau or omit the simple syrup altogether.
  • Experiment with different flavors: The Sparkling Cosmo is a versatile cocktail that can be customized with various flavors. Try adding a splash of raspberry puree or muddled strawberries for a fruity twist. You can also garnish the cocktail with edible flowers or herbs for a unique presentation.

Conclusion:

The Sparkling Cosmo is a delightful and refreshing cocktail perfect for any occasion. Its vibrant color, zesty flavor, and effervescent texture make it a crowd-pleaser.
