Elevate your home bar with these simple tips and explore our shopping guide.
Glassware Upgrade
What to Buy: Coupes, highballs, and rocks glasses. A decanter or pitcher will also come in handy.
Why: Glass shape is intentional and complements a different cocktail or wine. A well-stocked variety of glassware can look beautiful displayed, along with an elegant pitcher.
Tools That Work (and Look Good)
What to Buy: A shaker, strainer, stirring glass, bar spoon, and jigger in a finish that matches your vibe but is not overly trendy.
Why: These make mixing seamless.
The Extras That Elevate
Books: A few beautiful cocktail books for recipes and décor. Being able to quickly refer to a new cocktail recipe is a luxury worth having!
Matches & Candles: Chic matchboxes and a candle set the mood. Are you a matchbox collector? Curate a small bowl of matchboxes on the bar to display your collection.
Statement Bottles and Garnishes: One or two artisanal spirits or aperitifs you love, plus garnishes like a bowl of fresh citrus or herbs, chic cocktail napkins, and toothpicks.
Lighting: A small warm light can transform an at-home bar, making it a space of its own. Chargeable electric table lamps are an easy way to incorporate light and stylish fabrics into any space.
