11. The Daiquiri: The Seasoning

Citrus garnishes are pretty self-explanatory. Mmmm fruit. You can smell it, you can squeeze it in your drink for more juicey fun, you can just eat it and have mini plastic sword fights with your co-drinkers. What’s not to like.

7. The Martini: The Seasoning – Garnishes

Garnishes can be as dainty as a dehydrated pineapple slice, or a full on cheeseburger meal (I’m looking at you, bloody maries). Sure we “eat with our eyes first” and it’s fun to play with food on a plastic sword, but the garnish’s main purpose is to provide additional complementary aromas and mild seasoning, just as the bitters did to the Old Fashioned.
