Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! What are your plans for the big day or did you already celebrate this weekend? We are spending our evening in with a nice dinner and, of course, a few delicious cocktails. Speaking of cocktails, we have an easy Cosmotini cocktail that you can share with your sweetheart. This cocktail is perfect for Valentine’s Day. The Cosmotini is not sweet, so it pairs nicely with a rich dessert or creamy chocolate.
Rhonda has been a fan of a Cosmopolitan for years, so when we found this recipe we thought it was a great fit for those who like a Cosmo, but favor a more traditional martini. Because it is based on the traditional martini, it is more alcohol forward than a Cosmo. This one is a sipper!
The Cosmotini is made with vodka, cranberry juice, Carpano Dry vermouth, and lime for garnish.
