Watch as Better Homes and Gardens shows you how to make drink garnishes with melons! Liven up your party drinks by carving cantelope and honeydew melons into the initials of your party guests. For these cocktail party ideas, slice either honeydew or cantelope (or both!) into rings that are about a 1/2-inch thick. You'll also need alphabet cookie cutters, a paring knife, and short skewers. Simply press the cookie cutters onto the melons to achieve the letters of your choice. These fruit decorations can be placed into your party drinks three different ways, depending on the theme and feel you are trying to produce. Thread the fruit carving through a skewer and place on the rim of the drink. You can also try perching the garnish on the rim of the glass, or just dropping the fruit decorations right into the drink for a tasty afterthought. These fruit garnishes are a sweet and easy way to ensure your guests don't mix up their glasses at your next get-together! No matter the drink recipe, these sweet touches are simple and delicious.
