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.

  • 1 whole yellow peach
  • Limoncello
  • quarter of a lime worth of juice
  • ice

I really just eyeballed the amounts here, but the nice thing is that it's pretty easy to make a tasty cocktail with these ingredients!

Sounds pretty good. My wife made some peach/honey syrup I've been combining with citrus lately. I'll have to throw some limoncello into the mix and see how it turns out.

Did you juice the peach or blend it? And what strength limoncello are you using here? This sounds great and I think I wanna make it for a sunny day soon

Blended everything together. Not sure of the exact strength of the limoncello, but we used Everclear 151 when we made it since we couldn't get anything stronger. You can probably just adjust via taste depending on what you have.
