cocktail garnish

A cocktail garnish is an element added to a drink to enhance its visual appeal, aroma, and overall experience. Common garnishes include fruit slices, herbs, olives, or citrus zest, and are chosen to complement the drink’s flavors. Garnishes can also signal the drink’s ingredients or style, making it more inviting and sophisticated. They are carefully selected and presented to elevate the presentation without overwhelming the drink itself, adding both aesthetic value and sensory touchpoints that enhance enjoyment.
