no-one seems to have touched the truth about cosmos here. an original cosmo 
uses absolut citron, cointreau, fresh lime juice and cranberry juice. any 
drink made with different vodkas isn't a cosmo. take absolut kurrant, you have 
a metro. mandarin, a neopolitan. it was a drink created in '94 for the las 
vegas gay pride march and absolut by dale degroeff (so i've been told, anyonbe 
verify that for me?) so i just go off the standard recipe. i used to plkay 
about sweetening it with cassis, played about with gomme but if you use about 
1/4 oz of lime juice and squeeze 1/2 a lime in and drop it into the tin with 
the rest, that sweetens it fine.
