Lemon: Lemons are used to add a bitter or sour note to a drink, and are often used in
iced tea based drinks.
Orange: Oranges add a refreshing and sweet citrus note to a drink. They are usually
added to drinks like Tom Collins or drinks containing orange juice or orange liqueur. They are even
sometimes paired with heffeweizens and wheat beers.
Cherry: Cherries are famously used for old school whiskey drinks like Manhattans, but
are also used to add a fruity note to desert drinks (usually atop whipped cream).
Olive: There are various types of olives available, but they are most often used to add a
subtle flavor to martinis.
Lime: Limes are used very much like lemons, except that they are used primarily for
drinks that use tonic or club soda, as well as margaritas.
Apple: Apple slices are often used as a garnish for apple flavored drinks, especially apple
martinis.
Pineapple: Used to garnish fruity, tropical drinks by accentuating the flavors as well as
adding to the aesthetic of the drink.
Celery: Classically used to garnish a Bloody Mary, although bartenders like to use the
Bloody Mary as a platform for unique garnishes, like pickles, lobster tails, sliders, bacon, etc.
Spices/Herbs:
Salt: Salt is most classically used to garnish margaritas (you will probably want to ask
your customers to specify with salt of without salt).
Pepper: Often used for a Bloody Mary, but different variations are used for martinis and
even margaritas, as well as mixed drinks (peppercorn, pink peppercorn, etc.).
Mint leaves: Mint leaves are usually muddled into drinks like mojitos and mint juleps.
Sugars/Sweets:
Sugar: Used to garnish dessert-themed martinis (candy and cookies are also sometimes
used).
Inedible garnishes: Inedible garnishes are used to add color, flair, or a theme to drinks. Some
popular inedible garnishes include plastic swords, sparklers, and fancy straws.
