A glass rimmer is a bar accessory used to apply salt or sugar to the rim of a glass. It usually consists of one or more shallow plastic or metal discs that the glass is turned upside down into. The discs can be filled with either the rimming salt or sugar, or sometimes something to moisten the rim of the glass such as lime juice. The purpose of rimming a glass can either be for aesthetics or to enhance the flavor of a cocktail. Rimming usually crosses both categories. Adding something to the rim of the glass is very visually appealing and therefore ornamental, but with proper selection it can substantially enhance the flavor of the drink. Some bartenders choose to prepare several rimmed glasses in advance. Pre-rimmed glasses save time on preparation. == Preparation == There are many ways to adhere salt, sugar, etc. to a rim. These could include Gomme syrup, simple syrup, maple syrup, lime, orange or lemon juice, caramel or chocolate sauce, marshmallow Crème, and in rare cases, water. Water is generally only used with very finely powdered choices, such as castor sugar, icing sugar, and finely ground spice items such as cinnamon sugar. In most cases the material that is used has a natural tack or stickiness before it dries, and continues to hold after it dries. Typically this is citrus juice, since this is readily available at a bar. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「glass rimmer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
