The upcoming Barbie movie has sparked a fabulous craze called "Barbiecore," where pink reigns supreme and Barbie-inspired fashion, food, and drinks are all the rage. In celebration of this trend, we've got a delightful cocktail recipe that perfectly complements the Barbiecore spirit. So, grab your rollerblades and join us on this pink-filled adventure!
Let's get the party started with a refreshing Pink Cosmo. This vibrant cocktail captures the essence of Barbiecore and adds a touch of glamour to any gathering. Here's how to make it:
Ingredients
- 4 lime wedges
- 1/3 ounce simple syrup (see below)
- 2 ½ ounces vodka
- Splash cranberry juice
Directions
- In a cocktail shaker, muddle the lime wedges.
- Continue to muddle while adding the simple syrup, vodka, and a splash of cranberry juice for color.
- Fill the cocktail shaker to the top with ice.
- Shake and then strain into a martini glass.
Note: When the liquids are combined in the cocktail shaker with ice, you want to share it right away. The more you shake, the more watered-down your final cocktail will be.
Homemade Simple Syrup
Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
Directions:
- In a saucepan, heat the water and sugar until boiling.
- Remove from the heat and stir until sugar dissolves.
- Allow to cool.
Note: Replace the sugar with your desired sugar alternative if you prefer another sweetener. If replacing with Splenda, the ratio will be the same, but you may need to add more or less if using something else.
