Haven’t posted here in a while, but hoping to get back into the habit starting with these humming birds from a couple of weeks ago. I think these are my favorite garnishes I have ever made.
The cocktail was an Elder Fashioned riff with a little bit of grenadine.

If you’re ever in DC, I highly recommend Silver Lyan! Really creative menu, fantastic drinks, and super friendly staff. This was my first drink: spirit forward, but a little tart, a little savory, and the candied pinecone was a nice touch! #cheers 🍸

New garnish video!
This one is one that I use most on a day to day basis, and honestly most of the garnishes I post are just some variation on this template.

I got a bunch of AoT references from my (unintentional) wings of freedom garnish, so I thought I’d try a Naruto themed one this time.

I felt like this garnish belonged on a Paper Plane riff. This one was created in 2018 by Callum Rixson at Hideout in Bath, England:
Last Flight
3/4oz Bourbon
3/4oz Aperol
3/4oz Green Chartreuse
3/4oz Lemon Juice
Shake with ice, strain into chilled coupe, and garnish with lemon peel.

How to make this lime peel garnish.
I had to break this into two parts as a thread because BlueSky doesn’t allow videos longer then 60 seconds, and I couldn’t get it any shorter.

I had lots of lemons, so this week’s garnish video is a lemon peel garnish that starts out similar to last week’s, but goes in a different direction that I find to be a little less finicky.

Weekly-ish garnish video:
I came up with this as a more intricate option that still doesn’t require a giant swath of an orange or grapefruit peel.
I’d love feedback on whether I should redo this one. I’m not sure if it’s too hard to follow the twisting part.
