The Cosmo first hit the scene in the late 1980’s but didn’t gain true notoriety until its recurring role in the beloved ’90’s show Sex in the City. From there, the sultry pink cocktail became an undeniable fixture of the late ’90’s and continues to be popular over two decades later – with famous fans ranging from present-day Carrie Bradshaw, to Ina Garten.
Let’s celebrate this very special day with fun Cosmo recipes compliments of my favorite vodka – Grey Goose.
