White Cosmopolitan cocktails alongside other colorful cocktails at Café Boulud Palm Beach, served with the restaurant’s signature orchid ice balls.
Icy cold, crisp and unique, the White Cosmopolitan is a signature cocktail worth ordering at Café Boulud Palm Beach, Chef Daniel Boulud’s elegant restaurant tucked inside The Brazilian Court Hotel.
A refined take on the classic Cosmopolitan, its pale, almost translucent appearance makes it as beautiful as it is refreshing — and a fitting taste of Palm Beach for anyone looking to recreate a little of the island’s polished dining scene at home.
I especially love to order it during our mild, pleasant Palm Beach winters. This drink reminds me of the importance of taking a moment to sit down with friends and truly enjoy a moment together during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.
Ingredients
2 oz Stolichnaya vodka
1 oz St-Germain elderflower liqueur

In a shaker, combine liquid ingredients with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a carafe. Place orchid ice ball in a martini glass. When ready to serve, pour contents of carafe over ice ball.
*Orchid ice ball: Place one food-grade orchid in a two-inch diameter ice ball mold, fill with filtered water to ensure a crystal clear appearance and freeze.
