Cocktail How-to: Cranberry Cordial Punch | Where's the Bar
Starring: Elie Ayrouth and Rudy Chaney
Cosmopolitan cocktail recipe
In the 1980s there was a pink cocktail that was hugely popular, it featured rail vodka, Rose's lime juice, and grenadine. Toby Cecchini, whilst at The Odeon in Tribeca in 1988, set out to make his own version using fresh ingredients on hand. He created a simple sour with Absolut Citron vodka, Cointreau, fresh lime juice, and Ocean Spray cranberry juice, serving it up with a lemon twist.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz / 60 ml Absolut Citron vodka
1 oz / 30 ml Cointreau
1 oz / 30 ml lime juice
1 oz / 30 ml cranberry juice
