## What is The Rocks?

Discover craft cocktails personalized to your taste — from your first Old Fashioned to your next signature drink.

The Rocks is a cocktail discovery app built for home enthusiasts who want to go beyond the drinks they already know. Take a 60-second taste quiz, get matched to your cocktail personality, and explore a curated library of recipes — each one written with the care of a bartender who actually wants you to learn something.

DISCOVER YOUR COCKTAIL PERSONALITY
Answer five quick questions about your palate and we'll build your personal flavor profile. Are you a Classicist who perfects the Old Fashioned, or an Explorer chasing drinks you've never seen before? Your profile shapes everything you see in the app.

RECIPES THAT TEACH, NOT JUST LIST
Every recipe includes precise measurements, step-by-step instructions, technique notes that explain the why behind every step, a pro tip from behind the bar, and the drink's history. Tap to check off ingredients and steps as you go.

YOUR HOME BAR, UNLOCKED
Tell us what bottles you own and we'll show you exactly what you can make tonight — plus what one new bottle would unlock the most new recipes.

DRINK OF THE DAY
A new cocktail recommendation every day, matched to the season, the day of the week, and your taste profile. Never run out of inspiration.

65+ CURATED RECIPES ACROSS EVERY SPIRIT
Whiskey, gin, vodka, rum, tequila, mezcal, and non-alcoholic options — from timeless classics to creative twists you won't find on a Google search.

No account required. No sign-up. Just open the app and start exploring.
