Cocktails for a pride parade

2 months ago by da_cow (she/her) to c/cocktails

Hello everyone. I Am involved in organising my Citys queer pride parade, and the Afterparty in our students club. For this quite special occasion we thought that it might be a cool idea to offer some themed cocktails on the party. The problem is, I have no Idea what might be fitting and I have never mixed a single cocktail in my life. Thats why I thought, that I might just ask you, if any of you have some ideas for some cocktails (alcoholic or non alcoholic), that might fit the theme of a queer pride parade, that are easy to mix.

That one is great (I just bought the stuff to try it out), but I will definitely tweak the composition a bit, because if I follow the recipe, it is quite strong (even without the vodka)

Heads up, lowering ABV of a layer will change its density. Opendrinks isn't loading for me right now, but removing the vodka may result in the layers being less clean.

Be sure to tell everyone you used a mix of top and bottom shelf liquors

Cocksucking cowboys are easy and more of a cocktail shot.

Could you give the recipe for those unwilling to commit that phrase to their search history?

Thanks, I hate it.

But that was according to expectations.

So thanks!

A fruity pink drink seems in order, though I think you probably can just focus on taste and not worry so much about theme, get some rainbow paper cups and put delicious drinks in them.

It's not too hard to layer jello shots, or do them individually in different colors and arrange them.

The best non alcoholic drink I know is the Friend Zone but it's fussy. There is a stickied comment in this community and the non-alcoholic drink archive on Imbibe is great.

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.
