A delightful twist on the classic Cosmopolitan, this cocktail is perfect for any occasion.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
Using plenty of ice ensures the drink is well-chilled and properly diluted.
Add the vodka, orange liqueur, cranberry juice, and lime juice to the shaker.
Measure the ingredients accurately for a balanced flavor.
Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.
Shaking thoroughly chills the drink and mixes the ingredients evenly.
Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
Chilling the glass beforehand keeps the cocktail cold longer.
Garnish with a twist of lime peel or a fresh cranberry, if desired.
A garnish adds a touch of elegance and enhances the presentation.
