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.
Used the recipe in Mixel but with regular vodka. Might tweak the final recipe next time since I'm not using citrus vodka to be:
1oz vodka
3/4oz triple sec
0.5 oz lime
1 oz cranberry juice
House sweetened cranberry juice:
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon water
3 cups 100% cranberry juice not from concentrate
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Made the honey into a syrup with the water then mixed into the other ingredients.

I have the same glasses, we got them as a wedding gift. They have worked very well so far and Ive gotten multiple compliments when serving people in them
