Photo: Clementine Cosmos Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 clementines, plus 1 very thinly sliced, for garnish
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2/3 cup cranberry juice
- 1/3 cup lime juice
- 1 1/2 cups vanilla flavored vodka (recommend: Grey Goose
Directions
Cut the clementines into quarters and squeeze their juice into a saucepan. Add the sugar, water and clementine flesh and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture for 5 minutes. Pour into a strainer set over a measuring cup, pressing on the solids to remove as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids, cool the liquid to room temperature and pour into a pitcher. Add the cranberry juice, lime juice and vodka and stir well. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Put 6 or 8 martini glasses in the freezer.
To serve, pour the mixture into an ice-filled cocktail shaker and shake until very cold. Pour into the chilled martini glasses and garnish each with a clementine slice. Drink up and enjoy!

Loved this cocktail recipe, I jazzed it up and used what I had . I added vanilla, I only had reg. Grey Goose, I added some cloves for a little Xmas zest Wow, easy recipe to play with . Made jugs of it for the holiday Yankee swap party and another jug for Xmas !! I had my cocktails after the cooking was completed !!

Very good drink...especially for the girls in your family or at a party. The guys didn't want a pink colored cocktail. The clementine simple syrup was a beautiful orange color. I used organic cranberry juice and bottled lime juice (because the limes available at the time weren't very juicy...will make again.
