Hey there fellow drinkers, embibers, travllers and wanderers. We're on the hunt for some great writers to add some guest blog posts to our site.
We wanted to bring great content to our already great database and technical tools, but we need your help! When we started out on the site we had no idea how it would grow to where it is now, but now as it sits at the top of the technical cocktail tree, we realised that its missing that connection to users and the cocktail community at large. And thats where you could potentially come in.
From bartenders who experiment and create and want to post a new recipe, to a home user who just found out something revolutionary about absinthe and tequila mixes (?), the topics are open and not limited by experience or knowledge, we just want to hear your views, creations, methods, tools, stories and more.
Guest blogging on the site will give you a great platform to air your views and thoughts, and we'd love to hear from you if you're interested.
To find out more contact us using the contact page, or email Nick (or community editor) at:
[email protected]
Heres to growing our site in a positive way!

Bartender's top tip
The key to a great cocktail is balance. Ensure that the sweetness, sourness, bitterness, and alcohol are in harmony. Use fresh ingredients whenever possible, and don't be shy about adjusting the proportions to suit your taste. For instance, if you find a drink too sour, add a bit more sweetener, or if it's too sweet, balance it with a bit of citrus or bitters.
