This week I was mixing cocktails, and faced with the usual choice of just dropping the lime slice into the glass, or elegantly spearing it on a cocktail pick. Those metal picks are good for spearing things, like putting an onion in your Gibson, but they don’t stir worth a damn. Too skinny.
Swizzle sticks were such a good prop for flirting too!
so were matches, in every classic movie the guy offers a lady a light.
And don't even get me started on lighters!
Fascinating, thanks.
