Winter White Cosmo


The happy holidays are approaching and what better way to bring in the merry than with a cosmo.  Made with your favorite vodka (We recommend Ketel One or Grey Goose, this winter white cosmo is just what you need to keep you toasty and warm near the fire.  
While your vodka choice is optional...the Cointreau is mandatory.  It's an experience...Indulge. 






Winter White Cosmo 

Ingredients: Volume:
Your Favorite Vodka 2 oz
Cointreau .25 oz
Fresh Lime Juice/Simple Syrup Mixture .50 oz
White Cranberry Juice 1.5 oz
Cranberries (floating as garnish) 3 to 4 cranberries


Procedure:
Combine ingredients over ice in shaker tin.  Shake & strain into chilled martini glass.  For a festive touch garnish with 3-4 floating cranberries.

Secrets to Shake it up

Make your own cranberry vodka infusion, by placing cranberries in your favorite vodka and allow it to infuse for 48- 72 hours. 
For a stronger Cosmo flavor, substitute your favorite Citron flavored vodka.
For a fun twist and a little bit sweeter flavor use St.Germain Elderflower Liqueur in place of the Cointreau.
Increase the volume of all ingredients by 10 and serve punch style. Freeze cranberries in a block of ice so not only does it keep the punch chilled but also looks fun and festive for your holiday party!
