We will avoid all Sex and the City references here, but the fact remains: This cocktail is classic for a reason. The pink-hued, Martini-style drink was a favorite of many New Yorkers and made its way into our homes.
For a good decade the Cosmopolitan might have been the most popular cocktail in America and bartenders couldn’t work a shift without making dozens of them for thirsty patrons. Naturally, its ubiquity spurred countless riffs, from the White Cosmo (St-Germain in place of Cointreau) to versions featuring gin. While the drink isn’t as popular today as it was in its heyday, the classic recipe is still very much alive.
