Hey all,

Anyone ever experimented with alternatives to a citrus twist that is more shelf stable? Can you simply get an atomizer of essential oil as a replacement? I drink infrequent enough that I end up throwing away dried out or rotten citrus when I go to reach for it.

Interested in people’s solutions for this.

    Might not be quite the answer you’re looking for, but eat more mandarins and flavor your water with lemon and lime.

    I always have these 3 citrus in the house because I use them extensively in cooking in lieu of other acids or snacks. I also keep some dried mandarin peel around for use in stir fries, which is wonderful, but admittedly those can’t be used for cocktails as readily.
