Ok, here's the thing. Recipes are really personal. So you try it out and then adjust it to your personal tastes. More of this, less of that.
I like martini's. I like girl martini's. Meaning I'm not a huge fan of straight alcohol in a martini glass. I love a good dirty martini but it has to be extra dirty. I happen to really like a good cosmo. Yes, I jumped on the bandwagon because of Sex and The City. I also happen to love that show. I own most of the seasons. So sue me. I'm a mindless follower of certain shows. I admit it. Anyway, here is my favorite version of the Cosmo. Tweak it to your tastes.
Here's what I do:
2oz. Citron vodka
1 Tbl. triple sec
1 Tbl. cranberry juice cocktail
1 Tbl. fresh lime juice
a twist of lime, lemon, or orange peel to garnish.
Fill martini shaker 2/3 full of ice and add in all the ingredients but the twist. Shake the heck out of it till its good and cold and pour into a chilled martini glass and add a twist if you like.
