A cosmopolitan cocktail is a classic cocktail made with vodka, triple sec and fresh lime juice. It is usually served on the rocks. Although the exact recipe of the cocktail may vary from one recipe to the next, the basic principles remain the same. Three ingredients that are most often used in cocktails include vodka, lime juice and cranberry or triple sec.

The vodka and cranberry pairing has been a popular choice for bartenders since its inception. In fact, flavored vodka can be used as a substitute for cranberry juice in Cosmopolitan drinks. The main purpose of adding cranberry to your drink is to impart tartness.
Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao
The Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao is a modern variation on the classic cosmopolitan drink. David Wondrich, a cocktail historian, helped to develop the recipe. This blend of brandy, unaged cognac, and 14 botanicals provides an intense, nutty flavor and richness. This is a classic ingredient in finely mixed cocktails.

How to make Manhattan's best cocktail
One of the most well-known cocktails in the world is the Manhattan. Harry Craddock wrote the first description of it in his book, "The Savoy Bar Book", (1930). The cocktail is made up of equal amounts of sweet, dry, and rye whisky. It's mixed with ice cubes. Some people add bitters, orange juice, maraschino cherry, or even Angostura Bitters. There are many variations on the Manhattan recipe.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail with four ingredients. It can be served straight up in an ice-cold glass. Its origins date back to the 19th century when it was called the Four Deuces because it contained two measures of whisky, two measures of rye, and two measures of gin. Today, the original recipe is still popular among bartenders and drinkers alike.
Some people prefer to use bourbon instead of rye, while others prefer to use brandy. However, both work equally well. Make sure to use equal amounts of each ingredient when making Manhattans. Two shots of rye, two of sweet vermouth and four of dry vermouth are enough to make a Manhattan. Eight shots of Gin is sufficient. Mix them all together, and let it sit for 15 mins. Strain the mixture and serve. Serve with a maraschino cherry, or a twist lemon peel.
