Method
Apple Rose Garnish
- Peel a long strip from a red apple using a vegetable peeler.
- Roll it tightly and thread it onto a cocktail pick.
- Add a mint leaf to the pick.
- If made in advance, squeeze lemon juice on the apple to prevent browning.

- Cut a small piece of cucumber and create a hole in the middle.
- Thinly slice 10 pieces of cucumber and roll them tightly.
- Insert one end into the cucumber base and fan out to form a flower.
Lemon Twists
- Cut a thin slice of lemon.
- Slice through the rind and remove the flesh, leaving a long piece of rind.
- Twist it around a skewer and hold it over a glass to release citrus oils.
Strawberry Rose Drink Garnish
- Place a strawberry on a skewer.
- Make angled cuts at the base, repeat in the middle, and make cuts at the tip, then fan out the petals.
Citrus Hearts
- Peel two slices of citrus rind, cut them to size if needed, and thread them onto a cocktail pick to form a heart shape.
Notes
