Chef's Pro-Tips
- Muddle Gently: Crush the berries and mint just enough to release their juices and oils. Over-muddling tears the mint leaves and turns the drink bitter.
- Stir to Wake the Glitter: Add the edible glitter before pouring the tonic water, then stir gently with a long spoon. The swirl is what activates the silver shimmer and distributes it evenly.
