Delicious, I think this might be a bit better than a normal Cosmo. The agave adds substantial character but it still feels a little less dry than the normal Cosmo.

Kind of a Margarita/Cosmo hybrid I'D say. Pretty good, less dry than a regular cosmo

FML. This is top drawer, much nicer and punchier than the vodka alt

As I have a bottle of Cranberry juice needed to be used it’s cranberry cocktail day today. Enjoying this one much. Not sure if this juice is sweetened, I have a feeling it’s not and could have done with 5ml of sugar syrup. Night cocktail is going to be Nelson’s Blood No 2. And tomorrow a standard Cosmo (Dale Degroff, the only one that worked for me)

Great alternative to a Cosmo. Found it a bit on the sweet side for me, but I find most Cosmos are I would add a little more lime juice for my taste, but if you are a Cosmo lover, leave it alone.

Sure wish I could print this recipe or be allowed to copy the text. Guess I'll have to dream about what it tastes like. Nice user experience!

We pull the recipe up on a tablet or phone. Works great for us.

Thought I would have a tinker with this recipe, since I had some cranberry juice. Swapped Mezcal for Tequila, curacao for triple sec and used a flamed grapefruit zest garnish. Not Rude anymore, Profane perhaps, or just Cheeky!
