As with fashion, cocktails always go in and out of style. At a recent party, we brought back the cosmo, but with a little twist...because why not?!
During the Sex and the City craze, the cosmo was definitely one of my go to cocktails. It's easy, but just enough flare and served up, martini style, so a sexier drink than just your standard cranberry vodka for sure.
But as usual, we were looking to switch it up a bit, and lighten it up a bit too (literally), so I wanted to use a white cranberry. I feel the white cranberry on its own can get a bit too tart though, so the white cranberry peach adds just enough sweetness. And being married to a southern boy, I'm all about embracing the south and figured let's make this drink a Georgia Peach Cosmo and also swap out the orange liqueur with peach schnapps.
