This Blue Cosmopolitan Cocktail is just delicious and will brighten any day. Whether it’s in the dead of winter or a summer day, it’s sure to bring out the smiles. This variation on a cosmo cocktail with the gorgeous blue color gives a little class to any cocktail party. We decided to have a fun twist to this blue curacao and add a huge ice ball.

The large ice ball gives the Blue Cosmopolitan a twist of fanciful. I know cosmos are not normally served over ice but it’s fun to go against the norm. You know we believe in no set rules around here.
These Blue Cosmos add a special flair for a girls day in or for Christmas, New Years or to add a twist to a weekend cocktail party. There is something about a cosmo that is sexy and elegant and we love to add this cocktail to make any night extra special.
To make a Blue Cosmo, we need a cocktail shaker with strainer, an ice ball maker, and cosmopolitan glasses or do like we did and use a margarita glass.
(I also found this over-the-top cosmopolitan travel box aka booze box on Amazon for the serious cosmo makers)
