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.

So, what are you drinking this month? Cocktail or coffee, wine, water? Anything interesting?

I kicked it off today with a Paper Plane, first mixed up a Bitters and Smoke and that was a no for me. So nothing interesting yet.

Happy Easter to any who celebrate. Wrapping up the weekend with a margarita sbagliatto. Made a pitcher of margaritas, but since I already had both a mimosa and a glass of wine with dinner,. I didn't want anything too strong, so margarita plus Cava* plus some mineral sparkling water.

  • I cannot recommend strongly enough - the name is silly but Raventos i Blanc Blanc Blanc de Blancs Xaro-lo is so ridiculously good, and not expensive, I have bought this same "champagne" for every party since I discovered it. It's dry but flavorful with a gorgeous fizz from natural fermentation.
