Just A Merry Mocktail Monday Collab With @Tonix.Mocktails – The Staples Class 104: Introducing You To The World Of Thick Rimmed Mocktails!

At The Sober Curator our glass is always half-full, there’s just no booze in it. This week’s collaboration with @Tonix.Mocktails teaches us about how fun and easy it is to add a dramatic rim garnish.

The Staples Class 104: garnishes – the dramatic rim

This week’s JAMMM 

🤗

Sometimes a little drama goes a long way… right?
Kick up the drama, Liza with a Z, with your garnish, and stack that rim for picture-perfect, thick drip, deliciousness!

On this, Just a Merry Mocktail Monday, I’d like to introduce you to the world of thick-rimmed mocktails! This trick can be used with a variety of ingredients but the key is to make sure your sticking component has a thick viscosity. I used Chamoy with Tajin in this photo but you can choose honey and sugar for the rim if you’d like. As long as you have your sticky and your flavor ingredients worked out, you’ll be ready to take that photo for the gram and then enjoy the bursts of flavor!!

✨

Warning – too much can be a little overpowering. My advice would be to make sure your mocktail recipe matches the rim intensity or you might overtake the vibe. This chili salt rim is PERFECT for a NonAlc Michelada but maybe not for a light gin fizz. Although, I won’t tell you how to live your life… Enjoy your bevy however you’d like! It’s only a suggestion.

If you use this technique… I wanna SEE!! Tag @tonix.mocktials and @thesobercurator in your creations!!

Until Next Week!!
To Your Health!

-Nik
