COSMOPOLITAN WITH GRAND MARNIER®
I've been drinking cosmopolitans for 5 years, and you rarely find a bartender who can make one correctly. My favorite bartender is quitting and has finally let me in on her secret. Grand Marnier. Who'd have thought? I realize it is expensive, but if you want the best, you have to pay for it. This recipe will make an addict out of you. Not so sure that's a good thing - but one thing is for sure - this is the best cosmo you will ever taste in your entire life. Period!

AN ADAPTABLE COSMOPOLITAN COCKTAIL
In case you couldn't help but wonder, this more refined Cosmopolitan is not a robust red but a dusty pink, deeply chilled, and walks the line between sweet and sour. You can even shed the notion that it must be served in a martini glass, and serve it in a coupe or smaller cocktail glass instead. Whatever your vessel, tuck it in the freezer for about 10 minutes to properly chill before pouring.

MANGO COSMOPOLITAN
This is a little bit unusual in that it uses rum, but the result is really good. The flavor may well strike you as unusual as well. The citrus, combined with the berry and the mango surprisingly has a flavor that hints of ruby red grapefruit with honey. At that, this may well be an interesting alternative to the typical bloody mary served at brunch. Enjoy the recipe!

VODKA: COSMOPOLITAN
A little more dressy than the working-class vodka cranberry. The cosmopolitan is just that, a little sip of sophistication (and a throw-back to the "Sex and the City" girls).
