And Just Like That... It's Time to Raise a Glass to the Return of the Cosmo

NEW YORK, Nov. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- It may be the most awaited sequel to a sequel, but as fans of Sex and the City plan viewing parties to celebrate the return of Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte, one thing is certain… plenty of Cosmos will be served. So, brands such as Copalli Rum, QNSY Sparkling Cocktails and Absinthia's Bottled Spirits are only too happy to comply.

Aside from its supporting role in Sex and the City, the Cosmo became popular because it is a well-balanced cocktail that also happens to be delicious and very easy to drink. Rumored to have fallen out of fashion because, as Carrie Bradshaw said, "everyone else started" drinking them, the Cosmo continues to be one of the most commonly ordered cocktails in bars around the country.

And Just Like That… brings BFFs Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte together as they transition from the friendship they had in their 30s to the more complicated reality of life and friendship in their 50s, so it's only fitting that we take a look at "evolved" recipes for the Cosmo.
