Ever since I got a shaker a year ago, my goto drink is a Margarita. Just love 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.

After making them at the home, I can't drink margaritas when I'm out anymore.
It's three ingredients! Why is everyone messing with it? They always use some kind of mix or add flavors.
There is a Bad Margaritas thread in this community somewhere but I agree so hard. 2 parts tequila, 1 part orange liqueur, 1 part lime works for me, it's so ridiculously delicious for something so simple.
If someone wants a lighter one I do 1.5 parts tequila, 1 part orange juice, 1 part lime juice and a little bit of simple syrup.
Not even sure what margarita mix IS. There's nothing to mix, really. You need the fresh lime for it to taste good, and you need the tequila, so what's in the mix?
Exactly. It’s not difficult, folks!
