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.

Easy here (Florida) and the dwarf trees can grow in a pot so even if you are somewhere cold it's possible. Main problem in Florida is diseases - trees to grow here must come from nearby and be clean of citrus greening.
My lime tree made it 2 years in a pot before I planted it into the ground. Used "citrus spikes" to fertilize it, it did make plenty of fruit in season.
I would say easy compared to most fruit trees.
Learning to make super juice helps too - if you are having a party you can just leave that out and it tastes fresh all night.
