Cocktail Recipes: Sarah's Cosmopolitan

The Cosmopolitan is currently one of the most popular drinks on the planet today. As someone who has worked for the liquor control board for several years and in a state liquor store in my late teen, I have to tell you, this drink is definitely popular with a variety of demographics. Although the origin of it's general innovation is unknown, several theorists believe the drink was created by a bartender in the 80's era. Carrie Bradshaw anyone?

Although, it is certain that one can appreciate the Cosmopolitan for it's individual acquired taste and it's light, yet dramatic fluent flavor, the Cosmopolitan cocktail possesses a lot of quality ingredients that create it's essential appeal. The Cosmopolitan ingredients include: Vodka, Triple Sec, Lime Juice (or you can use Rose's Lime liqueur or cordial), and Cranberry Juice.

I decided to create the ultimate Cosmopolitan that one can appreciate for it's amazing flavor and general acquired essence.
