How to Stock a Home Bar Cart
How to Stock a Home Bar Cart
The Mad Men-esque home bar cart is enjoying a bit of a revival at the moment. Personally, I think it’s high time somebody gave this old relic a Pinterest makeover. However, I think there’s a special way of doing it because it’s very easy for it to either appear outdated or a little try hard.
The perfect cocktail is as much about quality ingredients as it is about detail and presentation. Ideally, all drinks should be served in their own appropriate glassware.
Here’s a list of glassware that I recommend for a well stocked bar cart:
Martini glasses
Tumblers
White wine glasses
Champagne flutes
A flask
Shot glass set
Moscow mule mug
Decanter
Pitcher
You’ll be prepared for most requests with that list, It’s a great starting point. And of course they’d be no beautiful cocktails without beautiful barware. I’ve listed what I deem to be essentials below:
Serving tray
Ice bucket
Bar tools
Bottle stopper
Ice scooper
Bar spoon
Corkscrew
Stir sticks
Bottle opener
Have fun!
