Cosmopolitan

This drink gained a lot of popularity during the run of a certain HBO show starring Sarah Jessica Parker (who, I believe, was a third-place finisher at the Preakness last year...) 




1.5 oz    Vodka
.5 oz      Triple Sec
2 oz       Cranberry Juice
1            Lime Wedge

Put 4-5 ice cubes in a martini shaker
Add the liquids 
Shake vigorously
Strain into chilled martini glass
Garnish with lime wedge

This is a light, refreshing martini that's perfect for a spring afternoon out on the patio while having whimsical conversations about Carrie and her harpy friends how hot Kim Cattrall was in Mannequin...
