Appropriate Garnishes

mojito

When the drink is served, it should not only taste good but also look good.
I f we hang out to a public bar, we will see the different drink come up with
different garnishes, yes it means for every drink has its own character that
match to the garnish.
There are some easy guidelines to follow when garnishing bar drink;

1. Drinks are garnished according to the mixer.
Anything with ..... is garnished with .....
Soda/tonic = lime
Orange juice = orange
Cola products = lemon
Pineapple juice = pineapple
etc.

2. By the liquor
Liquors come in a variety of spirits and flavors that can determine
which garnish will be most appropriate. Vodka can be flavored
with lemon, orange, watermelon, peach, and so forth. Rums
come in orange, coconut, raspberry and such.
Garnish according to fruit flavor--If Possible--

3. Other drinks
Mojito = lime and mint leave
Gibson = onion
Margarita = lime and salt
Daiquiri = orange and cherry
Bloody Mary = celery and lemon or olive and lime
Pina Colada = pineapple

4. Its easy to garnish a drink if we know what is in the drink,
so be educated about what we are serving. Sometimes Bars and
Restaurants also have specific garnish guidelines to follow for
uniformity.
