Edible Flowers & Leaves

Tiny flower adornments made with lavender or pansies improve the aesthetic of a drink almost instantly, with minimal effort while pineapple fronds or lime leaves add tropical touches to presentation.

Flavoured Ice Cubes

Freeze juices or herb-infused syrups into ice cubes since infused ice melts slowly, helping preserving the drink’s balance.
