My first Cosmo...

Yes, I've wanted to have a Cosmo. And never got around to ordering one, when we've been out. So last night, I made one for myself. And of course, took a picture! :-)

I chose to make the Original version... Which is credited to a South Beach, Fl bartender by the name of Cheryl Cook. She said she created it in 1985 or 1986. And in 1998, along came 'Sex And The City and made them very popular. :-)

I never watched the series when it ran. But I have seen a couple of episodes on DVD. And had great {silly, girly, shallow, just-pain-fun} fun at the film. So I began renting all the seasons, on DVD. Therefore.... I had some episodes to watch, while sipping my very first Cosmo. Which seemed very fitting. ,-)

So, what do I think, after all this time? Well, it was nice enough. But ... I have to confess... A Cosmo would never really replace my fav.... A Manhattan, straight up, with extra cherry juice. :-))))))))))) What can I say? I guess I go back too far, with my Manhattans, to fully embrace the Cosmo. Sometimes, of course. But fully... Nope.... >,-)
