How to Decorate Cocktails with Dried Flower Petals
Enhance your cocktails with a delicate and elegant touch using dried flower petals. Here’s a simple method to beautifully garnish your drinks:
Instructions:
1. Rim or side glass decoration:
• Rub a citrus wedge (such as orange, lemon, or lime) around the rim or side of the glass to moisten it.
• Gently press dried flower petals onto the damp area so they stick, or dip the glass into a plate of petals for a more natural, scattered effect.
2. Floating Petals:
• After preparing your cocktail, sprinkle a few dried flower petals on the surface of the drink. They will float gracefully, adding color and a floral aroma.
3. Ice Cube Infusion:
• For an extra special touch, freeze dried petals into ice cubes by adding them to water before freezing. As the ice melts, the flowers slowly release into the drink.
4. Citrus & Flower Garnish:
• Place a thin citrus wheel (like orange, tangerine, or lemon) on the rim or side of the glass, then sprinkle dried petals over it for an eye-catching effect.
