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.

  • 3/4 oz Gin
  • 3/4 oz Campari
  • 3/4 oz Sweet vermouth
  • 1 oz Lemon juice
  • 1 oz Aquafaba

Shake everything with ice.

Remove the ice and shake one more time.

Garnish with pink peppercorn because it matches the color :)

Nice variation of the Negroni, it tones down the bitterness, so it could definitely work for those that don't like Campari that much!

That’s a great looking drink. Nice work, looking forward to trying it!

I might well try this. My main problem with negroni is not the bitterness (Campari is great in fruity things - I often put some in a Paper Plane) but the super intense unalloyed sweetness, it just tastes like cough syrup to me.
