Hi guys! My name is Moe Harris and I am about to show you how to cut a wheel. A wheel is little variation of the lime wedge. This is more of an aesthetic thing. The wedge was really nice because you do allow it to squeeze nicely to the drink. The wheel is really just a pretty little garnish. Were going to start off the same way cutting the edges off of our lemon right there. Once, youve got the ends cut off, it stands right up. Now, what youre going to want to do is youre going to want to make one little slice, lets say about starting halfway through, cutting through one quarter of this lemon and then finally, all youre going to do is cut this thing long way is this way. You can decide the length of your -- the thickness of your wedge, just now sliding your fingers along right there. These are couple thick ones and by cutting that thing in a corner right there, it does allow that thing to just sit right on your glass and youve got a pretty little garnish right here. Its a lemon wheel.
