Imagine a Cosmopolitan — often considered the quintessential New York cocktail after it was made popular by Sex and the City — in the form of a macaroon. Grand Marnier, vodka, cranberry, lime, buttercream and pastry shell, all in one pop. Decadent. Sensational. Pick up one for an afternoon snack from Payard for $3 or pre-order a box of all four Grand Marnier Cocktail Macaroons in Cosmo, Margarita, Mojito and Orange Crush for $18. Just one note: if you don’t eat it right away, it must be refrigerated.
