A bright, modern twist on the classic Cosmo, juicy, citrusy, and beautifully crisp. The Raspberry Cranberry Vodka brings a vibrant berry note, while a touch of mandarin liqueur lifts the aromatics. Simple, elegant, and always a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients

2 oz Vodka Framboise Canneberge

0.25 oz Napoléon Mandarine (or any citrus liqueur)

Juice of ¼ fresh lime

Method

1. Chill a martini or coupe glass.

2. In a mixing glass, add Vodka Framboise Canneberge, mandarin liqueur, and freshly pressed lime.

3. Add ice and stir for about 20 rotations until cold and silky.

4. Discard the ice from your chilled glass, then strain the cocktail in, holding back the ice.

5. Garnish with a twist of lime or orange and add a mint leaf for a fresh aromatic pop.

Pro Tips

Why stir? Stirring (not shaking) keeps the drink crystal-clear and ultra-smooth.

Citrus swap: Try blood orange zest for a deeper, more floral aroma.

More tart? Add an extra squeeze of lime for a sharper finish.
