What are the spirits and tools i need to set up a home bar for less than $500?
what are spirits and tools i would need to step up an nice bar. i want to use high end but not overly expensive spirits (the only thing i have is cointreau for triple sec).
Answers:
For the bare minimum,
Alcohol:
Gin, Vodka, Rum, Tequila, Cointreau, Bourbon, Whisky, Brandy. These will be on your speedrack.
Equipment:
Shaker (2 or 3 piece shaker, personal preference), paring knife, glasses (8 oz rock, 10oz tall, brandy snifter, martini, wine, shot, champagne flutes), bottle opener, wine opener, bar spoon & fork, drainer (not necessary if u've got a 3piece shaker).
If you'd like to have cocktails, the following liquors would be great to entertain your guests:
Midori Suntory (melon liquor, for illusion)
Malibu (coconut liquor - great with pineapple juice)
Baileys (Irish cream)
Lychee Liquor (for lychee martini)
Peach Schnapps (for sex on the beach)
Galliano (vanilla liquor)
Apple liquor (for apple shooters)
Please do not ignore the ice, ice scoop, mixers (soft drinks and juices), straws, stirrers.. Essential.
Hope you'll have everything figured out.
