A straightforward connection to TheCocktailDB that gives you four tools: search by name, fetch by ID, get a random recipe, or filter by ingredient. Each response includes measurements, instructions, glassware, and garnish details. It's part of the Pipeworx gateway ecosystem, so you can either connect to just the cocktails endpoint or hook into their full 673+ data source collection. No authentication required since it uses TheCocktailDB's free tier. Useful if you're building anything food and beverage related, need recipe data for a chatbot, or just want your AI assistant to suggest drinks based on what's in your cabinet.

}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Cocktails data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
