The cosmopolitan martini gained popularity fairly quickly, traveling from Provincetown, through New York, Cleveland, and Cincinnati, and on to San Francisco or possibly from Miami to San Francisco, and on to New York. Its biggest popularity rise was in the 1990s. It was further popularized among young women by its frequent mention on the television program Sex and the City, where Sarah Jessica Parker’s character, Carrie Bradshaw, commonly ordered the drink when out with her girlfriends. In the episode “Sex and the Country”, Carrie goes to a drive-through diner and jokingly orders, “A cheese burger, large fries and a cosmopolitan please”. The film adaptation of the series also made reference to the popular martini.
