Garnishing in mixology is an art that makes a drink not just presentable but also contributes to the art of introducing elevated aromas and textures featuring subtler profiles. An essential part of glassware and cocktail serving – a rim refers to the opening of a glass that is often coated with ingredients to tie the concoction to the theme of a beverage.
The naturally thick sweetener allows crushed pistachios to stick firmly, giving the cocktail a sweet, crunchy profile while making for an aesthetically appealing garnish to adorn chilled glassware.
Incorporating organic rose petals into drinks not only adds a floral perfume and a pleasing appearance but also softens their texture, giving the drink a mellow botanical flavour.
To make themed cocktails stand out, rest a citrus twist along the edge of the serving glass or by submerging it partially to create a layered look – perfect for high-end cocktails.
Drinks kept chilled without being watered down can contribute more flavour with the use of frozen fruit skewers, doubling as edible chillers.
Dark chocolate makes a striking contrast to sugary or citrus-based drinks, while milk or white chocolate gives a softer, creamier texture; making the choice of chocolate a factor to consider while garnishing. *Drink Responsibly. This communication is for audiences above the age of 25.
