History Of The Cocktail

The Cosmopolitan, or Cosmo if you’re feeling casual, is one of the most iconic cocktails of the late 20th century, thanks in large part to its starring role in Sex and the City. But its story starts way before Carrie Bradshaw made it famous.

The drink’s roots are a little fuzzy, but many believe it evolved in the 1970s or early 1980s. Some say it was born in Miami or San Francisco, while others credit a bartender named Toby Cecchini in New York City, who refined the modern recipe in 1988. His version, using vodka, triple sec, cranberry juice, and lime, became the Cosmopolitan we know and love today.

By the ’90s, the Cosmo was the cocktail, gracing chic bars and glossy magazines everywhere. Its appeal? It’s light, fruity, a little tangy, and oh-so-easy to drink. Today, it remains a timeless favourite, loved for its simplicity, elegance, and that iconic pink hue.
