Serve a watermelon wine frappé with a wedge of fresh watermelon.

This is an easy way—and one of our favorites this summer—to add a simple garnish to a variety of fruit-flavored frappés. To accomplish this garnish for your watermelon frappé, slice your watermelon (or any desired fruit) into small wedges or pieces. Then, add a small slit to the middle of the fruit, allowing you to place it onto the rim of your glass. Instant garnish! This makes for a delicious, refreshing treat at a summer picnic. We also love this idea with whole strawberries for our strawberry daiquiri frappés or strawberry rhubarb frappés.

Drop a skewer of cherries on a wild cherry frappé.

To add this sweet garnish, spear seedless maraschino cherries onto a toothpick. Place the spear inside the glass. As you enjoy your wild cherry frappé, the maraschino cherries will add a boost of flavor to the cocktail—and result in a sweet treat for you enjoy after your drink is finished.

Pair a Belgium chocolate martini frappé with dark chocolate.

A Belgium chocolate martini frappé is a decadent treat by itself. Take it to the next level with a garnish of dark chocolate. You could sprinkle chocolate shavings over the top of the drink, or place a piece of chocolate into the drink. Another idea is adding a sprinkle of cocoa powder. All of these chocolate options sound wonderful to us!

Add a sprig of fresh mint to your mojito frappé.

Fresh mint has such a light, sweet flavor that is a perfect enhancement to many cocktails, including a mojito frappé. Mint lovers may also consider adding it to their next pitcher of margaritas or sangria frappés as well. This is a quick garnish, too: Just add a sprig of fresh mint, or several individual mint leaves, to each glass before serving.
