It has been awhile since I've shared one of my favorite cocktails!!! Life has kept me busy, but there is always enough time to create and indulge in a libation, or two. A cosmopolitan is one of my go-to drinks. Not only is it pretty to look at, but the martini glass/coupe helps to gauge my level of intoxication. I always monitor the drink slosh. Once it starts going over the edge, I know I have had a cocktail or two too many. Am I right?!? Don't worry, I only consumed one cosmo in the writing of this post. :)
This blood orange cosmo is pretty amazing and it's a fun twist on the traditional recipe. Cheers!
Blood Orange Cosmo
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz cranberry juice
- 1/2 oz orange liqueur
- 1/2 oz blood orange soda

- lemon wedge

- Muddle lime, orange and lemon wedge in shaker.
- Add orange liqueur, cranberry juice, blood orange soda, vodka and ice. Shake.

- Garnish with an orange or lime twist.
