A good cocktail not only impresses with its delicious content, but also with its attractive decoration. We're not talking about a simple umbrella or a slice of lemon on the edge of the glass. To really embellish the drink, you can implement our great ideas with fruits, herbs, stirrers, fruit skewers and even Oreo cookies. Find out more about decorating cocktails and surprise your guests!
The right garnish on the cocktail glass should match the taste and appearance of the cocktail without masking its own taste with an extreme aroma. Fruits are therefore a classic because they are often included in its contents as juice or in pieces. Citrus cocktail garnishes are easy to make and look impressive. Peel spirals made from lime or lemon peels are a nice alternative to lemon slices. Fruit skewers also make a great decoration for a cocktail. Just put fruit on a toothpick and put it on thatCocktail-Glasplace.
The highlight of many drinks is the crust edge - a rim made of sugar, salt, chocolate or coconut shavings. First, the edge must be moistened - dipped in lemon juice or rubbed with a lemon quarter. You can also use a colored syrup like Blue Curacao. Then the sugar is poured onto a small plate, the glass is placed on top and carefully turned. The excess sugar can be removed by tapping on the glass.
Drinks can also be decorated particularly effectively with ice cubes. Simply freeze fruits and herbs together and add the ice cubes to the glass.
