Everyone knows that for any big party you will want a well stocked bar so that you can entertain your guests unless you request them to bring their own booze. Depending on the type of party, being ready for it could be as easy as having a good supply of beer or wine, or as complex as a mixer for every drink you can think of. Either way, you will want to make sure you have a decent supply if you want to have a good time.
Usually when it comes to cocktails, it’s good to have all the staples handy since most cocktails are made of just basic liquor, maybe a mixer and some ice. Vodka, rum, whiskey, gin, scotch, and Bourbon are usually about all you need to get by in terms of liquors, but there are a lot of popular drinks that contain liqueurs as well such as grand mariner, triple sec, amaretto or Irish crème etc. so you may want to think about your guests and what may be necessary. And back to the mixers and ice, you’ll certainly not want to skimp on those, make sure you have enough coke, juice or whatever to get through the night and ice is something that you’ll want to have easily accessible and the more the better. Running out of either of those things can be a real pain!
Another thing to keep in mind is to make sure that you have plenty of the right garnishes for the drinks you plan on serving so you’ll likely have to go shopping before-hand if you may need something like mint, cocktail onions, celery or olives etc. If for any reason you don’t want to or can’t stock up on everything you might need, then you may want to create some kind a menu so people can easily figure out what they want out of what you can serve.
