Rhubarb martini (thelemmy.club)
submitted 15 hours ago by RBWells@lemmy.world to c/cocktails@lemmy.world

2 oz vodka

1/2 oz lemon

1/2 oz St Germain

1/2 oz rhubarb amaro

Not sure what else to call it. If a drink can be said to be vodka-forward, this is. It's balanced, a little sweet, barely tart, a little bitter, and I don't think I'd want anything adjusted but it is sort of like a really good flavored vodka. I am enjoying it. And I do love a pink drink. May work on this as a start to a Thanksgiving punch.

Sounds amazing, I'll have to keep an eye out for rhubarb amaro. Growing up, we had rhubarb growing in the garden, but I almost never taste it nowadays.

Rhubarb is dead exotic where I live. We have guava, mango, all sorts of things grow here, I even see prickly pear in shops but never rhubarb. The amaro I used is called Santoni, and it's nice. Bitter with the astringency I associate with rhubarb.

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.
