This amazing cocktail, the Very Pink Raspberry Cosmopolitan, I made for a guest post on my friend Barb’s blog,Creative Culinary.
There are two reasons I am making this cocktail one is from a fond memory of turning 21.
The other reason I am sharing this drink because Barb, told me that her daughter has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. No parent ever wants to receive such news about their kid, no matter what age. Barb is known for her fabulous cocktails on her blog, such as Pumpkin Pie Martini, Mexican Hot Chocolate with Tequila and Cayenne and this Blood Orange Margarita. And so many more. I love seeing the fabulous cocktails she comes up with. We got to talking about her daughter and she mentioned making all pink cocktails from here on out, since pink is the color of breast cancer awareness. I told her I thought that was an awesome idea, and she asked me if I would like to be the first guest post with a pink cocktail, I was beyond honored. So to see the rest of the story behind this drink and get the recipe head on over toCreative Culinary. Thanks!
I love everything about this cocktail and can’t wait to try it. Raspberries are on my ‘get to the store before the storm hits’ list so I can make it happen!
Thank you so much Shanna; I might not be able to do months of pink cocktails but we sure started off with a great one. A VERY pink one! XOXO

I love raspberries too and I usually don’t get any when I buy them – my kids eat them all first!!! So so glad you asked me to do this, you know I was more than happy to help out!!
I knew I just saw these some place else! I love Raspberries, I’ll have to try these when they’re in season.
