Building up your first bar cart can definitely be a daunting task, especially if you don’t know where to start! I created this guide to make it incredibly easy to choose different liquor types. As a mixology enthusiast, my bar is my happy place and I always love making a new creation! This is definitely not a frat house list; these selections are to create great quality cocktails at home. Any item on this list will be sure to please! XO
