• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 3-4

ingredients

• 2 ounces citrus-infused vodka (lemon or orange recommended)
• 1 ounce triple sec
• 1⁄2 ounce fresh lime juice
• 2 tablespoons raspberry-cranberry frozen juice concentrate, to taste
• 1⁄2 lime, cut into 1/4 inch wedges
• 12 ounces crushed ice

directions

1. Fill 16 oz shaker 3/4 full with crushed ice.
2. Pour all ingredients (with the exception of the lime wedges) over ice, shake for approximately 10 seconds.
3. Pour into martini glasses, straining ice as you go.
4. Garnish with lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
5. Note: We always keep a container of the Cran-Raspberry concentrate in a resealable jar in the freezer, it's easy to take out a couple of tablespoons whenever you need them--you never know when there will be a Cosmo emergency!
