For some reason my camera would only focus on the bottom of my glass.
We are hypnotized!
How is it?

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.

It's actually really great. Lots of flavors for a pseudo-tiki drink. It was also really easy to make just
2 ½ ounces* Hpnotiq
1 ounces white rum
½ ounce lime juice
½ ounce simple syrup
½ ounce pineapple juice
Reminds me of a punch based drink. Definitely screams "summer" and "tropical". I really wish I had better ice for my Collins glasses though. Half the experience is the presentation and the glass had a solid inch of space until the rim. I can only fit 2 ice cubes in the glass though.
You can whack the nice ice to crack it. Wrap it in 2 of those plastic grocery bags and hit it with a rolling pin. I like cracked ice for highballs. Sometimes actually just go to WaWa and buy an enormous cup of ice too.
