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.

4 cherries

1/2 tsp sugar

1 tsp instant coffee

2oz bourbon

Scant oz Cherry Heering

Scant oz lemon juice

1/2 oz Amaretto Adriatico

Tsp juice from amaretto cherries

Muddle the cherries with the sugar and coffee, add the liquids and stir to make sure the sugar and coffee are dissolved. Shake with ice.

I think it would work very well up in a coupe, it's a looker, but I wanted the big clear ice today.

Been reading the Transformers 2 seasons, such a good story. Not related to the drink just a good backdrop.

I just wanted to mention that the Transformers artist, Daniel Warren Johnson, does a really fun and soothing live drawing session every Friday. https://youtube.com/@danielwarrenjohnson1?si=5Mdq5QzuwScS4MmD
