Cosmopolitan 1934 - The BEST specs

Originally published in 1934 the book "Pioneers of Mixing at Elite Bars" featured a cocktail called the "Cosmopolitan Daisy". Here I show my interpretation of the original specs applied to the 'modern classic' specs of the '34 Cosmo. Yields a beautifully balanced and slightly more complex very refreshing cocktail.

Original Specs:
-Jigger of Gordon's Gin
-2 dash Cointreau
-Juice of 1 Lemon
-1 tsp Raspberry Syrup

My Specs:
-22.5ml / .75oz Raspberry Syrup
-22.5ml / .75oz Lemon
-2.5ml / .5tsp Cointreau
-2.5ml / .5tsp Dry Curaçao
-60ml / 2oz Ford's Gin

Steps:
-Chill a cocktail glass (martini glass) in the freezer.
-Take peel from lemon and set aside.
-Add the ingredients to shaker tin.
-Add ice and shake 10-12 seconds, double strain into chilled glass.
-Express lemon peel over cocktail and rim the glass with the peel.
