My favorite cocktail garnishes are flowers. I love the spring and summer when my balcony garden is overflowing with botanical things to add to my drinks. I always try to have a variety of edible flowers in my urban garden from nasturtiums to marigolds to pansies, but in the winter I have to resort to finding edible flowers in the herb section of high-end groceries.
