Day Two Hundred Eighty-Two: Raising the Bar

We hosted a cocktail party on Saturday night.  This means setting up a full bar.  Luckily, Martha has some advice on Setting Up a Bar

According to Martha you just need a few items:  base liquors including bourbon, vodka, white rum, gin, and tequila; base mixers like vermouth, cointreau, tonic, club soda, orange juice, and grapefruit juice; red wine, white wine and champagne; garnishes including olives, cranberries, lemon and lime wedges, an ice bucket, ice, a wine cooler, seven-piece bar set including a cocktail shaker, two-sided jigger, bottle opener, bar knife, strainer, tool stand and serving tray. And you'll want something to put all those drinks in: martini glasses, highball glasses, double old fashion glasses, white wine glasses,  and red wine glasses.

Oh, and don't forget the beer.

Make sure you have a very large table.
