Citrus Yin Yang ~ Ornament

Citrus Yin Yang ~ Lemon and Lime, in Perfect Balance

Every sour depends on it. Too much and the drink puckers, too little and it falls flat, and the host who finds the middle is calmer than the rest of us for a reason. Lemon for the Whiskey Sour, lime for the Daiquiri ~ harmony is a fruit bowl stocked with both.

• Sour Philosophy: Balance is measured in three-quarter ounces.
• Yoga Then Margaritas Gift: For whoever stretches at dawn and squeezes at dusk.
• Two Citrus Minimum: Never one without the other in the crisper.

Cocktail Threads made this round ornament for the tree that stands next to the bar cart. Pick ceramic at 3 inches or aluminum at 3.6 inches, and it arrives with its hanging string. A wipe with a damp cloth keeps it as polished as a chilled coupe, December after December. Tie it to a bottle of the good stuff, hang it on the tree, or hook it on the shaker shelf for the host who measures the vermouth twice.
