Nice combination of flavors. A bit too sweet but that may be due to the Crème de Cassis used.

As with others prefer this to the regular Cosmo. There is an excitement and burst of flavours I do not experience in the other Cosmo. The Cassis helps to pull out the cranberry flavour.

I prefer this to a Cosmo as the cassis elevates and adds a real depth where sometimes cranberry alone tastes ‘thin’

I find that the inclusion of blackcurrant liqueur adds depth and fullness to the traditional cosmo.
