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.

No entries to the March contest so no winner. For April our ingredient challenge comes from @[email protected],winner of the February challenge who suggested Cynar, Artichoke April.

The rules are few. At least 3 ingredients, must be (as far as you can tell) a novel drink or novel variation on a known cocktail. Winner is most upvoted, any downvotes are discarded.

Post requirements: A ~~picture~~, a recipe including measurements and directions, and a reaction - how was it? What does it taste like, mouth feel, anything you notice when drinking it.

(Removing the requirement for a picture as nobody is including one and Lemmy sometimes fights them).
