The Cosmopolitan is a stylish cocktail that combines vodka, Cointreau, lime juice, and cranberry juice for a perfectly balanced flavor.
It delivers a refreshing tartness from lime and cranberry, a clean body from vodka, and a smooth orange aroma from Cointreau.
With an alcohol content around 18โ20%, it is light enough to be enjoyed casually yet strong enough to satisfy cocktail lovers.
First popularized in 1980s New York, the Cosmopolitan became a cultural icon thanks to its frequent appearances in the TV series "Sex and the City."
Its elegant pink color and sophisticated flavor make it a favorite choice for parties, brunches, and special celebrations worldwide.
