MOCKTAIL AND COCKTAIL BECAUSE THE GARNISH IS THE EDIBLE PART
OF THE DRINK.

THAT COULD BE LIME JUICE OR HONEY.
AFTER DIPPING IN LIME JUICE DIP THE RIM IN CASTOR SUGAR OR
SALT OR BOTH MIXED TOGETHER.IF YOU DIP THE RIM IN HONEY OR SUGAR SYRUP THEN DIP IN COCONUT POWDER OR CHOCOLATE POWDER AND THIS WILL VARY AS PER THE DRINK.

THE DRINK IS SERVED WITH A WEDGE OF FRUIT LIKE LEMON SLICE, SWEET LIME,
PINEAPPLE OR ORANGE. THESE ARE THE ROUNDAL SLICE OF THE FRUIT WITH A
SLIT TO FIX TO THE GLASS. 

A DROP IN THE DRINK COULD BE A RAISIN, COFFEE BEAN, A PIECE OF VEGETABLE OR A CHERRY OR OLIVE.

THE DRINK COULD BE SERVED WITH A BALL OF WATERMELON, MUSK MELON , ETC. THIS IS OBTAINED BY USING A SMALL SCOOPER TO GET THE BALL OUT OF THE FRUIT.

MANY A TIMES A DRINK IS SERVED WITH GRATED COCONUT, GINGER,
CHOCOLATE ,ETC. 


A DRINK WITH A SPIRAL GARNISH WOULD LOOK JUST AMAZING. A LEMON SPIRAL,
ORANGE OR ONE OUT OF SWEET LIME . THIS SPIRAL COULD BE FIXED AROUND THE STRAW.

COLD COFFEE FROM MEGHNA CHOWDHARY

I have a very good cold coffee recipe.

Mix Coffee powder and sugar with a little bit of water (till all the coffee and and sugar are nicely dissolved and its not diluted yet pretty liquid.)put  in a bottle/jar , close  lid and shake and shake till it froths.
And it will froth a lot, and will rise double in quantity because this is a unique charaterstic of instant coffee. THIS WILL NOT WORK WITH FRESH COFFEE. In a glass pour this over fresh cold milk, stir and serve. There will be lots of froth and thickness
(for better effects- Blend the milk in a jar with ice cubes or vanilla ice cream to froth the plain milk a little bit more)
