Cosmopolitan Martini

A classic “Sex and the City” drink! This is my nephew Jonathan’s rendition of the drink made famous by the HBO series. I have also put ingredient amounts in cups and tablespoons as well as ounces, because that is how I made it and I think that it will be easier for the home cook/mixologist to make.

Ingredients

2 oz. of Vodka (1/4 cup)
1 oz. of cranberry juice (2 tablespoons)
Ice
Splash of fresh lime juice or orange juice (about ¼ of a teaspoon)
Fresh cranberries or lime/orange peel for garnish (optional)

Technique

Ingredient amounts will make one drink. In shaker add the first two ingredients and fill with ice. Shake well and strain into a martini glass. No ice should be present. Add the splash of fresh juice, which is key to making the drink. Garnish and enjoy!
