Cocktails, the libationary art!

A place for conversation about cocktails, ingredients, home mixology, the bar industry or liquor industry, glassware - this is not an exhaustive list. If you think it's in some way related to cocktails it's probably fine.

If you post something you didn't create give credit whenever possible.

Pictures and recipes are encouraged when posting a drink as a standalone post. Example of an ideal drink post:

We love garnishes.

Remember the code of conduct, keep it nice. In terms of cocktails- specific etiquette that might be different from other communities:

Mentioning your blog, insta, website, book or bar is allowed, yes. For now at least, we do allow self-promotion. If it gets out of hand this might change.

A good post with a drink you don't like is still a good post! Try not to conflate the drink and the post or poster. If someone has a relevant title, gorgeous photo and clearly formatted recipe of what you consider a truly terrible drink, a comment is more appropriate than a downvote.

On that topic: Polite critique/reviews of drinks (or posts, images, etc.) is allowed here. Encouraged , even. It's a good tool for improving your drinks and content. Really, just be nice.

I ended up with a 2L of Deep Eddy Grapefruit vodka. A year later, still have about 2L and want to leverage it for Thanksgiving in a punch or sangria, something that will use a lot of grapefruit vodka. Thinking about cranberry and rosemary maybe, I have many liqueurs and time enough to get any mixer.

Any suggestions for a crowdpleaser?

Keeping it simple! The Deep Eddy one is probably nice enough to do this with. I am considering mezcal but it's sort of divisive in my Thanksgiving crowd.

Even more simple, add it to your favorite citrus or grapefruit soda, additional fresh lime optional.
