Changed it a bit. Cut the ingredients in half for one martini. Instead of the lime juice, I substituted a lime squeeze in the bottom of the martini glass. I also substituted pomegranate juice for the cranberry. Wonderful!!!

Fantastic! Just the kind of recipe I was looking for! I did use less vodka and more cranberry juice and Grand Marnier, and garnished with lime instead of cranberries. Thank you!

Very good. I made a pitcher of them for an election 2008 Obama-McCain party in the South of France. It was everyone's first Cosmopolitan and they loved it. The only vodka I had was Grey Goose, which made sublime Cosmos, but that isn't going to happen any time soon again, regular vodka is more than called for here, the Grand Marnier is what makes these special.
