Recipe Note
To create a decorative lemon peel garnish:
• Carefully use a paring knife to peel a 2" by 2" piece of the lemon peel.
• Flip it peel side down on a cutting board and gently scrape the white part down so that it's thin enough to cut with an exact blade.
• Using a pen or pencil, draw out your design- geometric, leaves, or any design that is not to intricate on the back side of the peel.
• Then using a sharp exacto knife or paring knife ( I have found that the exacto is easier and you will be able to cut out smaller pieces with greater ease) cut along your outline of drawing.
• Once you have finished your design, use a tiny clothes pin to attach it to your glass of choice, or you can make a small slit in the middle of your design to slide onto your glass.
