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.
I think it's "tows the line" not "toes".
Anyway, does your local liquor place take orders? I know you can put in a special order for just about anything at Bevmo.
I went back and forth on that one in my head but was too lazy to look it up.
My local store takes orders and generally has both on the shelf. There is a shortage right now in my area. Even the local pub which has a cocktail on their menu using yellow chartreuse can’t get it right now.
Oh that's wild. Actually now that you mention it i haven't seen a bottle around in ages...
