The Best Cosmo I Ever Made. (OK, the ONLY Cosmo I Ever Made, but Whatev, It’s Still Really Good.)

Saturday was Girls’ Night. Hubby was away, so Leah came over to spend the night and we planned to stay up all night drinking Extra Special Cocktails and watching Supernatural Season 1 and talking, which we so did, and it was just like college again. Except that Leah and I didn’t know each other back in college, and that’s too bad because it would have been wicked fun!

I’m still quite amazed at how easy it was to make a cosmo. It’s always been a fave drink that I reserve for those “special” times when I want to drop 10-15 bucks on a single beverage, so I guess I thought it would be harder to make. Well, the hardest part was actually finding my shot glass in the back of the liquor cabinet. I spent maybe ten minutes looking up recipes and choosing ingredients. I’m not usually a liquor snob or anything, but I thought if I was experimenting, I might as well get the good stuff. Here’s the recipe I used, which is sort of a “best of” mixture of like three recipes I saw plus my own “special” ingredient:

Persephone Cosmo
1 oz Absolut Citron
1 oz Cointreau
1 oz fresh squeezed lime juice
2oz pomegranate cranberry juice cocktail
Combine in a shaker of ice, shake, strain into a martini glass,
garnish with a slice of lime and slurp away!
