What’s New

What changed on The Split, newest first.

August 16, 2026

• This page. Come back here to see what changed.
• Searching for a generic ingredient (gin, rye) now finds cocktails that call for a specific one.
• Cocktail cards show your own tracking marks — wishlist, tried, and your verdict.

August 13, 2026

• The shopping page is now called What Am I Missing?
• What Can I Make? lists drinks you can make with a substitution in their own section.
• When someone accepts your invitation, you hear about it in your feed.

August 11, 2026

• The notification feed: new cocktails from makers you follow, collection changes, and follows, each marked read when you open it. Mark All as Read at the foot.
• Collections are edited in place — add, remove, and reorder, then Save once.
• A quoted search term ("gin") matches whole words only; a bare one still matches everywhere.

August 10, 2026

• Tracking marks on every cocktail: wishlist, tried, will drink again, won’t drink again. Each has its own list.
• The pantry is a list of bottles with an in-stock switch on each; the basics (sugar, water, ice, citrus) are assumed unless you say otherwise.
• Homemade components count: with sugar and water on the shelf, What Can I Make? treats simple syrup as made.
• Search ranks the exact name first, then names that start with the term, then words within.

August 8, 2026

• Sign in with Google.
• Advanced search with operators — AND, phrases, exclusion, and ingredient filters where a good substitute counts.
• Zero-proof cocktails are marked, and there is a Mocktails filter.
• Every public page has its own share image, with the drawing on it.

August 7, 2026

• The IBA official list joins the cocktails, with three new glass shapes to draw them in.
