A cocktail garden is one of the simplest ways to make a balcony or patio work harder over summer. By combining herbs and edible flowers in a single container, it provides fresh garnishes for drinks while doubling as a decorative feature for outdoor seating areas.
The idea taps neatly into the growing popularity of edible planting. Rather than keeping herbs tucked away in separate pots, a cocktail garden brings together plants chosen for both their flavor and ornamental value, creating a display that looks beautiful throughout the season while supplying ingredients for everything from G&Ts to homemade mocktails.
