Happy Friday! I’m back this with another yummy cocktail to kick-off the weekend! This week I’m shaking up an awesome Cosmo, and I am dedicating it to someone special!
Today is my mom’s birthday, and since we can’t be together to celebrate, what better way to celebrate from a distance than to make her favorite cocktail, and in an outfit inspired by her!
This recipe is one of the first cocktails that my mom taught me to make and is seriously the best Cosmo ever! Now, every time I sip on one I think of her – love you mom!
Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz of GOOD vodka – I used Grey Goose
- 3/4 oz of Cointreau
- 3/4 oz of cranberry juice
- 1/2 oz of fresh lime – I used the juice of 1 & 1/4 limes, we like ours with a little more citrus
Instructions:
- Chill your martini glasses for an extra refreshing cocktail (PRO-tip)
- Pour the vodka, Cointreau, cranberry juice and lime juice over ice.
- Shake vigorously, until contents are well chilled.
- Strain your cocktail into your martini glasses and garnish with a slice of lime – see photos below for inspiration.
- Sit back and enjoy!
Little Maple has grown a lot since our first Happy Hour at Home, so naturally she needed to make another appearance. Together, we wish you a wonderful weekend with your families and great big Happy Birthday to my beautiful Mom! CHEERS xx.
