The Cosmopolitan is a classic and has been around for decades. The first time I had ever tried one was when my husband and I were eating out at a 5 star restaurant for our anniversary a few years ago. They’re easy-to-make and make a great dinner or after-dinner cocktail.

You can find a ton of easy-to-make cocktail recipes on the TwoClassyChics blog, other websites, and over on YouTube. When making this drink I have no qualms about tossing in a few fresh cranberries on top or a cherry or two.
Cosmopolitan Cocktail Drink Recipe
1 1/2 oz. Vodka
2 oz. Cranberry Juice
1 oz. Triple Sec
Ice Cubes
Lemon Twist
Sugar
Rim your glass. Place vodka, cranberry juice and Triple Sec into a cocktail shaker. Add ice cubes to shaker and shake until combined. Let sit for an additional minute or two to allow everything to chill together. Pour into a sugar rimmed cocktail glass. Add your lemon twist to garnish. Serve immediately.

This is a drink that my older son and wife would both enjoy. I prefer other fruits in my drinks.
