Cosmocello Cocktail
The cosmocello cocktail is a modern, citrus-forward take on the cosmopolitan. The inclusion of limoncello distinguishes it from the original, replacing some of the latter’s dryness with a full-bodied, lemony sweetness which gives the drink a brighter, sun-kissed profile, making it smoother and fruitier on the palate.

Tips & Suggestions
Preparation Tip 1
Avoid using too much triple sec—make it delicate so that the limoncello shines through without being dominated by orange-heavy liqueurs.
Preparation Tip 2
To mix the citrus parts without diluting the drink too much, give it a short, vigorous shake; this will preserve the flavour, purity, and body.
