Cocktail Garnish Options

Even though these drink recipes speak for themselves in terms of flavor, don’t skimp on the garnishes.

Adding a fun garnish or two is a simple way to take a drink recipe from good to great!

Some of my favorite drink garnishes include:

Maraschino cherries
Drink umbrellas
Fun and funky straws
Sugar on the rim of the glass
Salt on the rim of the glass
Fresh fruit (pineapple slices, lime, etc)

And that’s just the start! You can literally garnish the drinks with anything that you want.

Just be sure that you pick flavors that complement each other when you do!

Are you getting thirsty yet? I know I am – and I’m so ready to make these for my NYE party.
