Ingredients

Vanilla Bean Simple Syrup

1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 vanilla bean pod split

Virgin Cosmopolitan

1 cup cranberry juice
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lime juice freshly squeezed
sparkling mineral water
1 lime for garnish

Instructions

Vanilla Bean Simple Syrup

Using a paring knife, split the vanilla bean down the middle.
Combine water, sugar, and vanilla bean halves into a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and remove from heat. Let cool for at least an hour before using.

Virgin Cosmopolitan

Fill half of a cocktail shaker with ice, then add cranberry juice, orange juice, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of the cooled vanilla bean simple syrup.
Cover with the lid and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. Strain into martini glasses about an inch from the top.
Top each glass with a splash of sparkling mineral water and garnish with a lime twist.

Notes

Store the vanilla bean syrup for up to a month in an air-tight container in the fridge, leaving the pods in the mixture.

Chill the martini glasses in the freezer for at least 30 minutes prior to serving.
