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 did think it weirdly written. Wanted it more as a prompt, honestly. It did get me thinking about the value of going out for drinks, instead of just making them at home & sitting on the porch - decided after thinking about it that for me the value is almost entirely in going out, and the remaining bit in quality, maybe even beyond creativity. Though I will almost always try the bartender's drink-of-the-day special if there is one.
I am also a lightweight so while I love a boozy delicious one-and-done at home, when out I would rather be able to comfortably have 2-3 drinks.
