Enjoy a refreshing Blueberry Cosmopolitan tonight – find out how to mix this perfect drink.
Ingredients
- 2 oz vodka you can use a blueberry-flavored vodka for an extra berry kick
- 1 oz triple sec or any other orange-flavored liqueur
- 1 oz blueberry juice fresh or store-bought
- 0.5 oz fresh lime juice
- Fresh blueberries for garnish
Instructions
- Chill the Glass:
- Start by chilling your martini glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.
- Mix the Drink:
- In a shaker, add ice cubes to cool the liquids quickly.
- Pour the vodka, triple sec, blueberry juice, and lime juice over the ice.
- Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. The shaking not only mixes the cocktail but also chills it further and adds a bit of dilution, which is essential for the perfect cosmopolitan.
- Prepare the Glass:
- Empty the ice water from the martini glass and strain the mixture into the glass. Using a fine mesh strainer can help ensure that no unwanted ice chips end up in your cocktail.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Garnish with fresh blueberries. You can either drop a few berries into the drink or skewer them on a cocktail stick for a more decorative touch.
- Optionally, you can add a twist of lime peel for an aromatic garnish.
