Hello all....
After having a few too many at Karbora's Euroa Cove the other night, I nearly dropped my Crab Rangoon into my drink, sparking a discussion of what would make the most horrific garnish.
Now, not all garnishes are edible (thank goodness), but I include swizzles, decorative items as well as foodstuffs in the garnish category.
To some people, it could be something as simple as those little paper umbrellas (to purists, the kiss of death to a classic drink). To others, having a maraschino cherry could turn one's stomach. Me, I am made of heartier stuff, having made Bacon Martinis before (Stoli, Gin, dash of liquid smoke, with a piece of bacon as a swizzle).
But hey, what is your idea of the worst garnish?
Discuss.
