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.

It looks like Kimchi's resting against a huge cocktail!

It legitimately took me like 15 solid seconds of thought to realize, no, this probably isn’t a super cozy bar with cats in, it’s probably your own house with your own cat in..

I have no idea why my first thought was cat cafe/bar and not home. Maybe the composition of the photo. Idk.

Kimchi is a cutie, and would be a visual winner at a cat cafe.

Surprised to see a tortoiseshell so chill. My dad's cat is villainous lol

She is chill and affectionate, and almost fearless, and our orange cat is playful but jumpy and irritable, we live in backwards land I guess.
