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.

Today? It was so good!
2 oz bourbon
3/4 oz lemon juice
3/4 oz Amaro (I used Amaro Toscano)
3/4 oz roasted pineapple syrup
Shaken.
Look up the Golden Crown by Katherine Bouchel for the syrup recipe and another whiskey/pineapple drink.
I realized I didn't answer which whiskey - honestly I think the best with canned pineapple juice is Irish whiskey, when we are out, like at a festival , pineapple juice and Jameson is one of the most reliable things you can order.
Bourbon with fresh pineapple juice.
Scotch in pineapple tepache is amazing, and I bet the roasted pineapple syrup would also be a good match.
So, all sorts of whiskey I think probably have some pineapple match.
