lemon twist
Cocktail's yellow spiral
A lemon twist is a thin strip of lemon peel, often curled, used as a garnish in cocktails and other drinks.
The twist releases aromatic oils when squeezed over the glass: a martini with a lemon twist.
The term also describes a citrus-flavored variant of foods or beverages: lemon twist cookies.
