If You've Got the Zest Flaunt It ~ Ornament

If You've Got the Zest Flaunt It ~ Peel Confidently

There is a moment, channel knife in hand, when the lemon stops being a lemon and becomes a statement. Long curl, no pith, draped over the rim like it belongs there. Modesty is for the fruit bowl ~ the glass gets the show.

• Zest Pride: For the one who peels a spiral and expects applause.
• Citrus Confidence Gift: A nudge for the friend whose garnish game is quietly excellent.
• Flaunt It Fairly: The twist worked for it, let it shine.

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.
