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.
Unnamed as of now.
1oz white rum (Shipwreck)
1oz toasted coconut rum
1oz Heirloom Pineapple Amaro
1/2 oz lime
4 oz Jarritos Tamarind
Pretty good. Tamarind soda by itself I find meh, but its subdued nature works well here. I think a sparkling green tea would be good here if you can't get tamarind.
Looking for names? Might I suggest The Mutineer?
That's perfect, thanks!
Or as the say in Spanish: un jaiból.
EDIT: Wait a minute... isn't a highball supposed to be whiskey or rye with carbonated water?
I think anything in soda is a highball, like Jack & Coke or a Paloma. This one is probably too complicated to qualify technically, but has the spirit, mostly soda and not really stirred or shaken, easy peasy.
