Friday = Happy Hour: Cosmo Slushy




It's Friday!! Friday equals Happy Hour at Swanky Tables, so here's our First Friday Drink Recipe. Compliments of Real Simple. Here's the bonus....you can prepare the drink the night before your party. Love that!!



Cosmopolitan Slushy

1 1/4 Cups Citrus Vodka
1/2 Cup Lime Juice
2 Cups Cranberry Juice
4 ice cube trays

Combine vodka, lime juice, and cranberry juice in a pitcher with 2 cups water and stir to blend. Divide between ice cube trays and freeze at least 4 hours or overnight (the drink cubes will freeze only partially). Just before serving, empty trays into a large bowl and using a fork, break up cubes to make it slushy. Spoon into martini glasses and serve.

If you don't have 4 ice cube trays, or would like to make this drink last minute, I would substitute frozen cranberry juice and just throw it into the blender with the rest of the ingredients!! Pour into martini glasses....Delish!!

Yield: Makes 6 servings
