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.
Had one of these on vacation and decided to try it at home but wanted to cut back on the ice. This one was considerably more boozy than the previous so I suspect the bar was cutting back considerably on the rum or the ice does more to mellow it than I expected. Either way I still enjoyed it and recommend it especially if you have some extra ripe bananas to use and don't feel like making banana bread
Ah yes, many a Dirty Banana at the Sandals resorts in Jamaica. Good memories!
I thought that was a frozen shrimp....
Hell yeah!
