Your Basic Home Bar Liquor List
What kind of liquor list does a proper home bar require? (in other words, what’s in your home bar's medicine liquor cabinet?) We asked ourselves this question: If you were to stock a mini-bar in their home, what are the required items? * Brandy * Gin * Vodka * One or More Flavored Vodka(s) * Kahlua * Grenadine * Creme de Cacao * Whiskey (Jameson or Powers) * Minimum One Quality Scotch * Triple Sec * Rum (a dark and a light) * Sweet Vermouth * Champagne * Angostura Bitters * Lemons, Limes, Cherries * Sugar, Salt * Tequila
There are, of course, other liquor items not listed above. You’ll need cream for White Russians and Brandy Alexanders… You’ll need tomato juice bases for Bloody Marys, etc. But the above list of liquors ought to be a good enough start for most any home bar. As for the quality of the liquors of this liquors list, you really want to stock middle-quality liquors. In other words, don't go too cheap on the booze, and don't go too expensive either (unless you can afford it). If you stick to the well-known names when stocking your bar, you will not go wrong.
