Review:

This is the definitive Cosmo recipe from the man most associated with the drinks development and popularity.

History:

This recipe is from Dale's 2002 'The Craft of the Cocktail' where he also explains that while he did not invent the Cosmopolitan, in his own words, "What I did do was popularize a definitive recipe that became widely accepted as the standard."
