It’s easy to make the classic cosmopolitan cocktail even more festive by adding some mulled simple syrup. This is a holiday crowd pleaser.
Ingredients:
-
Absolut Vodka
-
Cointreau
Instructions:
Combine all ingredients into a shaker with ice. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with sugared cranberries.
For the mulled simple syrup:
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
0.25 tsp ginger
2 cinnamon sticks (or 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon)
0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
12 whole cloves (or 0.25 tsp ground cloves)
1-2 cardamom pods
3-4 star anise pods
Two orange peels
4 droppers of orange bitters
Combine water, sugar, and spices in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, to dissolve sugar. Remove from stove and let cool completely. Strain syrup into an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
