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.

This one I find worth the fuss. Made a partially batched version for Thanksgiving last year and it was a big hit. Easier to measure when making a bottle of it, I premixed the booze, then day of mixed the juices/honey, it was easy enough then to shake or tell someone how to make it.

Was looking for something to make today and realized I have both the Chinola Passion Fruit and fresh pineapple juice, and when I looked I had everything for this & for me it hits all my favorites - smoky, spicy, fruity, sweet/tart, touch of bitter.

Very interesting! I'm intrigued by this one. Thanks for sharing. I also enjoyed your write up.

This got me inspired to make a fire tincture.
