The Pisco Sour is such a classic, and I’m always pleased with its simplicity. Plus, when you nail the bitters decoration it makes you feel really fancy! Here’s my go to recipe, which I originally got from Speakeasy. I subbed aquafaba for the egg white and skipped the nutmeg.

2 oz Barsol Pisco Quebranta brandy
¾ oz lime juice
¾ oz simple syrup
1 egg white
4 drops Angostura bitters
grated nutmeg

Pour the brandy, juice, syrup, and egg white into a mixing glass. Shake very hard without ice for a few seconds. Add ice and shake vigorously for up to 30 seconds. Strain into a coupe. Decorate by carefully adding 4 drops of bitters and dragging a toothpick in a circle through them.

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.
