    Slice the ends off your fruit.
    cut the bulk part of the fruit open in one spot and use your knife to remove all of the pulp from the peel.
    Take the peel and wrap it like a cinnamon roll around your cocktail pick.
    Pull it off the pick and slice it into four or so pieces.
    Then, take one piece and wrap it around the pick again, but not overlapping the peel at all.
    Pull it off the pick and it should stay twisted.
