Cosmopolitan is a beloved classic made with citrus vodka and cranberry juice. This bright cocktail of neon purple color is considered feminine and begs to be picked up on the eve of March 8th. Its main ambassadors are the singer Madonna and the eternal TV series Sex and the City. Here is the spring weekend scenario for you. All that remains is to mix the cocktail.

Cut the lime in half and squeeze out 10 ml of juice. Wash the orange thoroughly with a stiff brush to remove the waxy coating. Using a sharp knife, cut a strip of zest 7-8 cm long.

Fill the shaker halfway with ice. Pour the juice and cranberry juice into a shaker, add Triple Sec and citrus vodka. Seal tightly and shake for 30 seconds. Pour through a strainer into a margarita glass.

Light a gas burner over the glass, bring the cut strip of zest to the fire and squeeze the essential oil out of it. It should flavor the drink. Garnish the glass with burnt zest and serve the cocktail immediately.
