The Cardinal – a cocktail recipe by Michelle Hartsell Cocktail Engineer

This is basically a cosmo made my favorite way - very dry.  You have to follow the ingredients exactly to get one this dry.  Just in time for National Cocktail Day!

To a shaker 1/3 filled with cracked ice add:

5 oz. good quality plain vodka
1 oz. dry curacao
1 oz. fresh-squeezed lime juice
3 oz. 100% juice cranberry juice (no sugar added)

Shake and strain into 2 cocktail glasses garnished with a nice big piece of fresh lemon peel.

Cheers!
