A spicy margarita with a supper of pizza. Good combination and a great drink.

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.

Wrapping up the week with an Amaretto/Bourbon sour. Split amaretto between Adriatico and Lazzaroni. Because I had egg whites as I used the yolks in cookies and who can waste eggs now?
Felt very rich so I made a single-serving of egg nog with real egg and Amontillado sherry. Also felt not-rich and drinking some boxed wine. I contain multitudes.
My local supermarket currently offers pretty drinkable and affordable sake. I usually add a bit of sparkling water to it because I'm a heathen.
Paper plane season is nearly upon us!
I've been drinking too much blue state (not a brand just where they're from) whiskey neat. Though I've made several boulevardiers with one of the less approachable bottles I've acquired recently. Made a couple "black" to kill a languishing bottle of amaro (substitute for the vermouth). Added a dash of china china to a couple to add some more excitement (not more than a bar spoon or it becomes too sweet).
A lot.
I didn't get a picture but it's good!
2 oz bourbon, one of lime and one of St. Germain, shaken.
