  • Get two small plates making sure the food area is large enough for your full rim to fit nicely.
  • Pour in your rimming sugar or salt or rimming ingredient in one.
  • Pour one liquid ingredient from your “cocktail” mixture in the other plate – remember this liquid will be adding flavor to the rimmer so choose one of the more flavorful ingredients like fruit juice or one of the liquors.
  • Take your “cocktail” glass and dip the rim in the liquid then lightly shake off the excess.
  • Dip your moist “cocktail” glass rim into the rimming ingredient.
  • Shake off any excess by holding the glass upside down and tapping the bowl gently.

Another Idea – Kids would love a glass of milk with a sprinkled rim for a special occasion too!
