#203 Cocktail: Meropolitan

      Ther are not so many things to say about this cocktail which is just a variation of the , more known, Cosmopolitan.
     The only difference in this recipe is that , instead of using the normal vodka, you have to use the Absolut Kurant vodka. The story behind the name Absolut Kurant is black currant, a typical Swedish berry from which the flavor is taken. When launched in 1992 it was a tribute to the Swedish origin of Absolut Vodka. Originally it was even supposed to be called Absolut Vinbär since the Swedish word for black currant is vinbär. Only thing was that the English pronunciation would have been wine bar.
