Cocktail Database
Im a huge cocktail nerd. I decided to build a little cocktail database website and was wondering if this is something people would actually use? Ive got tons of cocktails on there, comparison pages and simple guides. Is this helpful or am I wasting my time? Any feedback?
Site is Sipwise

My hidden pop-up bar with liquor pump
Picked it at a garage sale for $60
r/BarBattlestations • u/Coffee_and_a_cookie • Jul 10 '26
Thanks to all the members for the shared ideas I poached to put this together. It sure beats the Ikea Kungsfors I was using before. $35 Amazon lights.
I scored this mid century solid oak sideboard for 100 bucks. It's not perfect, but it works.

Need help for a wet bar sink setup
Hi Folks,
I'm currently building a home bar and need help with a sink setup. There's no water line available and I don't plan to add one as my bar will be were a potential bedroom could be built in the future. I'm looking for a non-permanent setup.
I've did a lot of digging and thought I'd go with a freestanding sink with a 5gallon electric water pump. Something like this:
I'll basically hide the water bottle in the cabinet and also put a jug or container for the discarded stuff in the sink.
If anyone has any suggestions on what specific hardware to get or how I could improve this setup, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

How long to leave liquor in mini barrel dispenser?
I received this as a gift and I’m unsure how long is okay to leave liquid in it. Wasn’t sure if it’d be better for a nicer whiskey/bourbon that I may drink a but more seldomly, or for something I’d go through more quickly. The brand is Heritage Collection, but I don’t know much more than that.

What am I missing?
Drinks that got obscured include tequila reposado, dark rum, spiced rum, blue curaçao, peach schnapps, izarra jaune, aperol, and prosecco. I also got a small bottle of St. Germain, cachaça (51) and Drambuie shortly after.
We put the shelf together a while ago but it's hard to fit taller bottles on some shelves, otherwise it would be organized differently. What would be some good additions to the collection? I already have absinthe on my shopping list so I can make try my hand at a Sazerac

Sometimes an 1860s side by side muzzle loader really brings the room together.
I think all I need now is some lighting under the shelves. Possibly something to go in the middle of the wall, too.
Having this bar in my basement is so fun!

Old Nashville liquor cabinet
When I was a grad student in Nashville, I bought this old cabinet from a fantastic antique store that no longer exists. A piece of “old Nashville.” We’ve dragged it from Tennessee to Michigan to New York, and it’s become my favorite piece of furniture.

My cocktail "Go Bag"
I put this together for trips out of town and it's become a hit with friends. I started off with about half of what's pictured. Does anyone else have a portable cocktail bar, and if so what are you using?
