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.
I invite you to join me in having the most popular cocktail of the year 2000, a Cosmopolitan.
2 oz vodka
2 oz sweetened cranberry juice
1 oz lime
1 oz orange liqueur
Disappointed you didn't celebrate 1978 subscribers with a Pangalactic Gargle Blaster.
...have I never had a cosmopolitan? That looks great
Beautiful colour on it. Not a drinker, but cranberry juice is good stuff.
My wife loves a Cosmo.
Cheers!
Also, nice work on keeping the community interesting as it grows, without it simply becoming your blog :)
