A candied lime garnish elevates any citrus cocktail.
Fresh citron of all kinds brightens and sweetens even the darkest of spirits - and with the combination of sparkling wine, lemon and a candied lime, this easy-to-drink citrus cocktail will be sure to keep life tangy.
Candied fruit, or crystallized fruit, has been around since the 14th century as a method of food preservation. While still a very fine option for using up some extra fruit you may have laying around, even more so, candied citrus is an all star ingredient as a cocktail garnish.
