Glitter and Trash Instructions

Are you tired of the same old boring cocktails? Looking for something fun and unique to serve at your next party? Look no further than the Glitter and Trash cocktail! This sparkling and vibrant drink is sure to wow your guests and become the talk of the night.

The Glitter and Trash cocktail is a playful and eye-catching drink that combines sweet and sour flavors with a touch of elegance. Its name reflects its essence - a mix of glitz and glamour with a dash of unconventional charm. The cocktail gets its sparkle from edible glitter, which not only adds a visually stunning effect but also adds a subtle shimmer to every sip.

To make the Glitter and Trash cocktail, start by preparing a delicious base using your choice of spirits. Whether you prefer vodka, rum, or tequila, the choice is yours! Add in some freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice for a refreshing zing. Then, balance the flavors with a touch of simple syrup or agave nectar, depending on your preference for sweetness.

Now comes the fun part - the glitter! Using edible glitter, such as a gold or silver dust, add a pinch or two to your cocktail shaker before shaking vigorously. This will ensure that the glitter blends uniformly throughout the drink, creating a mesmerizing effect. The glitter not only adds a touch of glamour but also enhances the overall experience of the cocktail.

Once you have shaken the cocktail, strain it into a glitter-rimmed glass. To rim the glass with glitter, first, moisten the rim with a lemon or lime wedge. Then, dip the rim into a small dish of edible glitter, coating it evenly. This step adds an extra touch of dazzle to your Glitter and Trash cocktail, making it picture-perfect for any social media-worthy moment.

To complete the cocktail, garnish it with a twist of lemon or lime peel for a pop of color and freshness. Serve it to your guests, sit back, and watch as their eyes light up with excitement upon seeing the glitter shimmering in their glasses. The Glitter and Trash cocktail is not only a feast for the taste buds but also a feast for the eyes.

So, if you're ready to take your cocktail game to the next level, give the Glitter and Trash cocktail a try. Its combination of glitz and glamour with a touch of unconventional charm will make it a hit at any party or gathering. Let your creativity shine by experimenting with different spirits and flavors to create your own signature Glitter and Trash cocktail. Get ready to sparkle and sip your way to cocktail perfection!
