COSMOPOLITAN JELLY
OK you won't get all the alcohol of a true drink but give this a try. I made this with some added goodness from my garden but you can omit the bee balm. I got the idea to make this after I made my Cranberry Bee Balm Jelly http://www.food.com/recipe/cranberry-bee-balm-jelly-460975 You can do more or less with each juice but be sure to equal 4 1/2 cups of all the juices Including the vodka.. This would be great to use to dip the rim of the glass into the heated jelly and then into sugar for an exceptional Cosmo. Or on toast, spread on a wrap filled with chicken or pork.
