### 3/5 — Long Island? 7oz of liquor??

*2022-11-19, version 4.0.3*

The Long Island recipe has 7 ounces of liquor in it. I’m positive this isn’t correct. Otherwise a good app.

### 5/5 — Love this APP

*2021-06-21, version 2.4.5*

Run don’t walk to the APP store for this amazing cocktail recipe app. The recipes are why I downloaded it, but the unique history stories are why I stayed.

### 1/5 — Can’t open

*2021-06-12, version 2.4.5*

App crashes before I even get it open. Can’t use it at all since latest update.

### 5/5 — Best cocktails app

*2021-03-24, version 2.4.3*

Best cocktail app I’ve tried. Thanks for the Cl update 👌🏻

### 5/5 — Not bad

*2021-01-18, version 2.3.2*

My go-to app for cocktails. Really dig the east layout though I wish some of the measurements could be more standard like just keeping it all ounces. 
Also like the personal touches of history and notes.

### 5/5 — Move over Tom Cruise, Cocktails have never been so easy to make!

*2020-12-02, version 2.3.1*

I love this app! An essential any liquor enthusiast this upcoming Quarantine season

There’s so many great drink options available, and the few that I’ve tried have been fantastic. The instructions are clear, simple and concise. The Browse by Ingredients is my favorite feature, as you can search for possible drinks that you can make based on whatever ingredients you have available. I’m looking forward to trying out more of the recipes

### 5/5 — I love this app!

*2019-05-04, version 2.3.0*

Cocktail Royale is so much fun. More information is added all the time. I don’t try to save anything. I just love to read about the cocktails, ingredients, history, etc. I use it for a reference all the time.

### 3/5 — Bugs

*2018-08-12, version 2.1.0*

It seems like a good app but it crashes every time I try to save something in my liquor cabinet

### 5/5 — Willing to pay for more recipes!  Perfect app design

*2018-03-29, version 2.0.0*

This app is perfect. Pictures, history, simple and accessible the way you would want a drink recipe app. The only regret is that there isn’t more recipes and more history/commentary to go with them!  I would gladly pay add-ons to this app if that were possible

### 3/5 — You couldn’t update to iPhone X screen size?

*2018-03-23, version 2.0.0*

Come on.
