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.

Whipped up some delicious Singapore slings yesterday! I used a recipe from The Educated Barfly, but instead of adding soda water, I just shook and carbonated the whole thing.
- 1.5oz (45ml) Gin London Dry
- .25oz (7.5ml) Cherry Heering
- .25oz (7.5ml) Benedictine
- .25oz (7.5ml) Cointreau
- 1oz (30ml) Lime Juice
- .25oz (7.5ml) Grenadine
- .75oz (20ml) Pineapple Juice
- 1 dash Angostura
- Soda Water [top]
It's sweet, but I think pretty balanced. Kinda tastes like a delicious melted sno-cone, but that might just be my association with cherry heering.
Old Fashions over here
Kept it light and simple over the long holiday.
Elderflower sparking water, Apertivo, Gin, Ice (maybe a citrus rind laying around)
Ratio changed a bit periodically, but just a light refreshing beverage on hot days.
Watermelon Ball 2 cl Water Melon Liquor 2 cl Vodka 4cl Orange Juice Pour over ice abd steer
For Friday Synch & to continue dry July - a jalapeno/black pepper limeade. Fresh limes from the tree, simple syrup, ice and half a jalapeno (also homegrown), few black peppercorns, pinch of salt, water to cover, all in the blender then taste, adjust, blend again & strain over ice.
Fancy variations of sweet & sour drinks are by far my favorite non alcoholic flavored drinks. Excluding coffee of course.
