FAQ
Questions TheCocktailDB owners ask.
- 01
Can I search for cocktails that only contain a specific ingredient like Gin?
Yes! Use the filter_by_ingredient capability with 'Gin'. It will return a list of all cocktails in the database that include Gin as one of their primary components.
- 02
How do I get the full instructions and image for a specific drink?
First, find the drink ID using search_cocktail_by_name. Then, use the get_cocktail_details capability with that ID to retrieve the high-res image URL, full ingredient list, and step-by-step instructions.
- 03
Does the integration provide non-alcoholic drink options?
Absolutely. You can use the list_alcoholic_filters capability to see available filters, and then use filter_by_category or specific search queries to identify 'Non_Alcoholic' drinks.
