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.

Angostura bitters 1-2 dash on top

A tick bush of slapped (for aroma) thai basil 

French name because of many French ingredients, but keeping with tiki traditions of mysterious and dangerous vibe.

I created this recipe after reading through the excellent tiki cocktail book Smuggler’s Cove. It’s unnecessarily complicated just because…

Basically the realm of Tiki cocktail has few criteria (1)sour/involve citrus (2) complexity and (3) extra points for crashing ice with a hammer. it’s impossible not to be happy crushing ice!
