I prefer the body and texture of fresh lime AND the rich sweetness of Rose's, so I start with a whole lime squeezed and scraped to get all the pulp I can possibly get. Then, I add the same amount of Rose's lime juice. I call that 1 part lime juice. Then I add 1 part cranberry juice, 1 part triple sec (Gran Marnier and Cointreau aren't orangey enough-too complex) and 2 parts vodka. This usually makes four cocktails (about 750 ml.). If I only want one or two, I put the shaker in the freezer and save it for later. The next day, I have slushy, frozen cosmos, which are, of course, stronger with the first sip and milder at the end. Yum!
The advantage of using the "1-part" method as opposed to ounces is that you can never be sure how much juice you'll get from a lime. I just squeeze out what I can and that tells me how much of everything else to add. Enjoy!
