Love it! Used white cranberry juice the second time around, and it was perfect!

Perfect! I did use Finlandia blueberry vodka, just great.

Delicious cosmo! I rimmed my martini glasses with a sugar and lime zest mixture (mix in a mini food processor). This would definitely help with some of the tartness that people are mentioning, but I can never have enough lime juice. The frozen raspberries were a fun addition. Will definitely make these again!

Wow, these are great! One of the best I've had. The only change, I added a tiny bit of lemon juice, just a squeeze. Perfect, will make again.

Wow, these are great! I just made them for my wife after we discovered we were out of white rum, nixing Long Island Iced Teas. These were a wonderful alternative. I used almost 1 oz more of lime juice than called for and also used cran-raspberry juice. They were not at all too tart and next time I might add a touch more lime juice. great recipe, thanks.
