Cosmopolitan, A Cocktail for Libra

Fun, flirty, and aesthetically pleasing Libra (September 23-October 22) could not be any drink besides the lovable Cosmopolitan, immortalized in HBO’s Sex and the City. The cocktail embraced by fictitious NYC socialite Carrie Bradshaw (also a Libra!) is the obvious choice for the sign ruled by Venus, the authority on all things relating to love and beauty. Balance in a Cosmopolitan is crucial, too little or too much of any component can make or break the drink. We’ve taken the guesswork out with this tried-and-true recipe that’ll have Libra happy to have direct instructions. Plus you can pair this cocktail with the perfect meal for Libra and learn a bit more about this special sign.
