"To make most of these drinks, you'll need some less common ingredients. Things like Chartreuse, maraschino liqueur, and Lillet Blanc don't typically appear in basic home bars, but they're worth the investment for the flavor! These bottles should last quite a while since you use them in small quantities."
"I recommend starting with one or two of these drinks, buy the specific ingredients, and build from there. I didn't stock my bar overnight: it's taken years of gradually adding bottles!"
Upscale cocktails often require less common ingredients such as Chartreuse, maraschino liqueur, and Lillet Blanc. These liqueurs and aperitifs rarely appear in basic home bars but contribute important flavors that justify the purchase. Typical cocktail recipes call for small amounts of these bottles, so a single bottle can last a long time. A practical approach is to start by selecting one or two cocktails and buying only the specific ingredients needed for them. Building a broad home bar is best done gradually, adding bottles over months or years to spread cost and avoid waste while expanding capabilities.
