I’m a fruity cocktail drinker all year round, but especially when the weather warms up. More often than not, I’m mixing vodka with some sort of fruit juice, so when I found out about the new Smirnoff Sourced line, I was really excited to give it a try. Smirnoff Sourced is made with real fruit juice, and it comes in three flavors: Ruby Red Grapefruit, Pineapple, and Cranberry Apple. I decided to taste test the pineapple flavor, and give a classic cocktail a tropical twist.
Cosmopolitans are usually made with straight vodka, but why not make it more fruity with this pineapple version?!
The combination was light and tasty, and could definitely be made in larger quantities for a spring party or picnic.
Pineapple Cosmo with Smirnoff Sourced
1 oz. Smirnoff Sourced Pineapple Vodka
1/2 oz. triple sec
5 oz. cranberry juice
Splash of lime juice
Combine the first three ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake to combine. Add the lime juice and pour into the glass (or pineapple-shaped cup) of your choice. Garnish with fruit.
