Lovely Jubbly, Gimme the Bubbly!

People are getting more & more into absurdly garnished cocktails:
Every few years, the cocktail pendulum swings from minimalism to maximalism and back again. We’re currently in a maximalism era, but even with the most elaborate, innovative methods a bartender can employ making their drinks, those cocktails still look like, well, liquid. So, many turn to the cocktail’s garnish to go wild. Sometimes, they go a little too wild. During one particular recent bar visit, my cocktail arrived with its own separate bowl of semifreddo, herbs, and various gelées; it took the server a full minute to instruct me on the order in which to sip and bite different elements.
WELL well well, WHO do we all know and love that's the Godfather of this movement???? 🤗😜🤣🇬🇧
