9. Garnish for Texture and Appeal — Pomegranate, Sev, or Roasted Cumin

A small garnish turns a simple glass into something special. Pomegranate seeds add bright color and a juicy pop that contrasts with spice. Thin sev or roasted boondi gives a pleasant crunch that some families love for serving at gatherings. Finish with a pinch of roasted cumin powder and a sprig of mint for aroma. When plating for guests, use tall glasses and add garnishes just before serving to avoid sogginess. For a light snack pairing, place a few sev-studded papdi or roasted peanuts on the side. Garnishes not only improve presentation but also add textural contrast that makes the drink more memorable.
