Cocktail Calculator
Choose your menu (Margarita, Mojito, Espresso Martini, or your own signature recipe) and get every ingredient consolidated into one list.
Cocktails
From menu to shopping list
Say your event needs 300 cocktail serves split between three drinks. The calculator distributes the serves (equally or with your own percentages), multiplies every recipe out, and (this is the part spreadsheets get wrong) consolidates shared ingredients. If the Margarita needs 3 litres of lime juice and the Daiquiri needs 2, your list says "Lime juice: 5 L, buy 6" once, with a waste buffer for fresh produce. Tequila used in cocktails merges with the tequila for your mixed drinks, and the soda topping your Mojitos joins the soda cases in your mixers order. The engine counts everything exactly once.

Need a signature drink? Add a custom cocktail with any ingredients and amounts. Known ingredients (lime, agave, tequila…) are recognised and consolidated automatically with the rest of your order.
Frequently asked questions
How many cocktails can I make from one bottle?
With a standard 50 ml pour, a 700 ml bottle yields about 14 serves and a 1 L bottle about 20. Recipes built on 45–60 ml of base spirit yield slightly fewer.
How many cocktails should I plan per guest?
It depends on how much of the bar is cocktails. On a cocktail bar they are about 80% of everything served, and on a cocktail-heavy menu around 90%; on a mixed bar the share drops and spirits with mixers take over. Pick your bar type and the calculator sets the split.
Does it list the ingredients or only the spirits?
Every ingredient in every recipe, consolidated across the menu and converted to what you buy, with a waste buffer on fresh produce. Limes, syrups, juices and garnishes all land in the same shopping list as the bottles.
Can I add my own signature cocktail?
Yes. Add a custom recipe with any ingredients and amounts. Ingredients the engine already knows (lime, agave, tequila and the rest) merge with the same items from the other drinks, so nothing gets counted twice.
