FATLODA's 15PCS reusable stainless steel cocktail garnish picks at 4.3 inch for olives, cherries and citrus.
Viski Stainless Steel Cocktail Picks Ring Top, Set of 6, 4.25 inch
Viski's stainless steel cocktail picks with ring tops in a set of 6 at 4.25 inch, a polished pick for elegant drinks.
Cocktail picks are the small detail that makes a home drink feel finished. They spear olives for a martini, hold a cherry over an old fashioned, and keep fingers out of the glass, all while adding a bit of polish to the presentation. Reusable metal picks last for years and rinse clean, while bamboo works when you want a casual, disposable option for a crowd. Look at length so they clear your favorite glasses, and check the tip design so garnishes stay put. Our picks cover everyday sets and dressier styles for guests.
