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.
Wrapping up the weekend with a pineapple & bourbon drink. 2oz bourbon, 2 oz fresh pineapple juice, 1 oz Heirloom pineapple amaro, 1/2 oz lime (would have used more but this was the last lime on my tree, juicy but wee).
I have yet to find any variation of whiskey and pineapple that is not delicious.
We are watching the Stalker movie from the 1970s, husband fell asleep but I think it's pretty good, have read a lot of things based on Roadside Picnic and it's just such a foundation of sci fi.
Pineapple makes almost any somewhat normal cocktail ingredient taste good! Even makes a full shot of absinthe go down smooth.
