The ice cubes can be whole, or they can be wrapped in a clean towel and broken into pieces with a hammer or round rod, or even broken into pieces. It will make an eye-catching decoration on the dining table. Another way to make decorative ice cubes is to fill an ice mold half-way with water, freeze, place the decorations on the ice, fill the mold with water, and refrigerate.

Frost ornament
Many different materials can be used to create frosting. Here's a rule of thumb: when frosting with salt and parsley, moisten the edges with lemon or lime juice, and when frosting with sugar, use lightly beaten egg whites. To dye icing sugar or coconut frosting, mix it into powdered food. You can also mix coffee powder, chocolate powder or cinnamon with sugar to make frosting. Cocktails with salt frosting such as "Salty Dog" and "Margarita" are often drunk with salt frosting when drinking. In contrast, icing is usually just for decoration, so you can use a straw when drinking. Some accessories used to decorate drinks are also displayed here: cocktail umbrellas, assorted straws, colorful stir sticks and artificial fireworks.
To make the frosting: Wash and dry the glass thoroughly. Pour some table salt or kosher salt into a dish or bowl larger than the diameter of a cup. Hold the inverted wine glass tightly and dip the wet rim into salt so that the salt sticks evenly to the rim. If the salt frost is uneven, just dip it in a few more times.

Orange ornaments
To garnish cocktails, tangerine fruit is an ingredient that has many different uses. You can simply put a piece of fruit on the edge of the cup, or you can try complex decorations such as spiral wrappers, kumquats and lilies. Choose fruits that are firm, thin-skinned, intact and preferably unwaxed. First wash the fruit and use orange decorations, which are mainly made of oranges, lemons and limes. Others such as Ugli fruit, grapefruit, clementines and Satsuma tangerines are also good choices. Cut some small stars out of the peel and float them on top of the wine, and a simple drink can turn into something spectacular.

The garnishes used in cocktails are meant to accentuate appearance, not obscure it. Fruits are seasonal and may not be in season. A bunch of fresh redcurrants hanging on the edge of the cup or grapes dipped in sugar can be used as decorations.
