## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability cocktaildb-search-via-clonecho-builda-company-3003a8c7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the recipe for a Negroni — I want to know what glass to use, whether it's alcoholic, and the full preparation instructions?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick cocktail recipe lookups by name, including category classification, glass type, alcoholic status, and preparation instructions. Prefer this over a generic web search when structured JSON output is needed for downstream processing or display.

## Known failure modes

- Drink name not found — returns empty or null drinks array if the search string matches no entries in TheCocktailDB
- Ambiguous name — a partial or misspelled name may return unexpected results or nothing
- Missing ?s= parameter — likely returns an error or empty response
- TheCocktailDB upstream outage — endpoint may return error if the upstream API is unavailable

## How this service works

Cocktail search returning name, category, alcoholic flag, glass and instructions from TheCocktailDB. Param is a drink name. Query: ?s= Returns JSON.

## Output

A JSON object containing cocktail details from TheCocktailDB: the drink's name, category (e.g. 'Cocktail', 'Shot'), an alcoholic flag ('Alcoholic' or 'Non alcoholic'), the recommended glass type (e.g. 'Old-fashioned glass'), and step-by-step preparation instructions.
