1pt White Cosmo Recipe
1pt White Cosmo
A paler, quieter turn on the classic Cosmo, softened by linden blossom and lifted with lemongrass. Bright lime, white cranberry, and a clean floral edge make it feel lighter on its feet: the kind of drink made for longer light, looser plans, and no particular reason to rush anywhere at all.
STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion
Infuse Your Spirit:
Combine a 1pt Sangria White Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of Vodka in any lidded container. Let it infuse for 3-4 hours, then strain, and reserve the infused spirit for your cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)
1pt Sangria White Infusion Blend Ingredients:
Linden Blossom, Lemongrass, Marigold Flowers, Ginger - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives
Mocktail* Version:
Substitute water or a zero-proof spirit for the alcohol in this infusion and follow the same steps. (Non-alcoholic infusions should be refrigerated and used within 30 days)
STEP 2 - Mix Your Drink
| Ingredient | Cocktail (1) | Batch (8+) |
|---|---|---|
| 1pt Sangria-infused Vodka* | 1.5 oz | 375ml |
| White Cranberry Juice | 1.5 oz | 12 oz |
| Fresh Lime Juice | 0.5 oz | 4 oz |
| Simple Syrup | 0.5 oz | 4 oz |
Mixing Instructions:
Combine ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a suitable glass over ice. For batching, do not shake. Instead, combine all ingredients in a pitcher with ice (adding 4 oz of water to mimic the dilution you usually get from shaking) and serve as normal.
Garnish:
Garnish with a grapefruit wedge and a sprig of fresh thyme.
STEP 3 - Enjoy!
For an Added Twist:
Add a splash of club soda or tonic water for a little or a lot of extra zing.
Our Food Pairing Suggestions:
Cocktails shine especially brightly alongside simple but creative appetizers that bring out their full range of flavors. For this cocktail, try these ideas based on the vibe you’re going for:
- Simple & Satisfying: Cucumber rounds with whipped feta, dill, and lemon zest, giving the cocktail’s white cranberry, lime, and floral notes a cool, clean place to land.
- Classic & Comforting: Crispy coconut shrimp with a lime-yogurt dip, bringing just enough richness and crunch while the drink’s lemongrass and ginger keep everything light.
- Elevated & Elegant: Crab cakes with a bright lime aioli, bringing delicate richness and a clean coastal edge that keeps the cocktail’s white cranberry, lemongrass, and soft floral notes crisp.
