The Cosmopolitan, often called "Cosmo," is a world-famous cocktail that originated in the 1970s. The earliest version is attributed to Cheryl Cook, a Miami bartender who wanted to create an elegant drink for martini glass lovers. She combined vodka, triple sec, lime juice, and cranberry juice. Later, in the late 1980s, Toby Cecchini in New York refined the recipe with high-quality lemon vodka and fresh ingredients, giving the Cosmopolitan its modern character.
Today, the Cosmopolitan is a classic on cocktail menus around the world. Despite its popularity in the 90s and early 2000s, it remains timeless and represents sophistication and the combination of tradition and modern lifestyle. Its simple but balanced taste makes it a favorite in bar and cocktail culture.
