I'd say it lives up to its reputation, too. The last time I saw someone drink Cointreau, she ended up dancing naked in front of a mirror while her boyfriend and I tried to pick our jaws up off the floor.
But I digress.
This is one serious cocktail, despite its girly reputation. I mixed an ounce or so each of Cointreau and vodka, added ice and poured cranberry juice over the rest. I'm about a third of the way through and already my brain is buzzing. That Cointreau is wicked stuff, but it mixes well with the cranberry juice for a cocktail that's neither overly sweet nor too dry.
Alcohol taking over. Better make this quick.
