'Is this technically how you make a Cosmopolitan? No, it is not. It was fun, though!'
Photo: inagarten/Instagram At 9:27 on Wednesday morning, Ina Garten posted a cozy video of herself making a giant Cosmopolitan. It is a perfect video, because it looks exactly like normal Ina Garten content — a crisp, white Hamptons kitchen; an equally crisp, jewel-toned button-down shirt — except that she is making a pitcher of alcohol, for one, at nine in the morning.
At this juncture, a lot of recipes would have you add a twist of lemon, but Ina doesn’t bother with that, which I respect. It’s only 9:27 a.m., after all. The drink itself was … well, it sure was a drink! It tasted very, very alcoholic, and very, very sweet, and I am confident I could drink too much of it very, very quickly.
However, for comparison, I also made true Cosmopolitan, following Toby Cecchini’s recipe. Cecchini is the authority on Cosmopolitans, because he is the person who invented them. Apparently, Ina is not the only person who makes her Cosmos incorrectly. “Despite common pop-culture associations, the original Cosmopolitan is a rather dry cocktail,” Punch notes in a footnote to his original recipe.
