If you've got space in your home that you would like to put into good use, then you could consider setting a simple bar. After all, if you have the habit of entertaining people from time to time, then having a well-built bar with adult beverages would be a good option because you have a place to corral those bottles, mixers, wines and other accessories.
Simple tricks for setting up a quick home bar
If you have an extra chest or cabinet space that you could convert into a bar, go ahead, add a personal touch, paint it with an exciting colour to add some enticing pieces along for display. Having an antique Armoury at home would be a good idea because you don't have to spend extra dollars in setting up a bar, but rather convert this armoury into a bar. It can hold an amazing amount of bottles, bottle accessories and wines, depending on its size, of course.
Armouries with bar carts are a nice combination because that would be the best place to mix drinks, and your guests would feel comfortable, walking over to the cart to mix their own drinks. Make sure the bar carts are spacious enough, meaning, you don't cramp them with too many items.
Convert your console table if you have one, and place your bottles, bitters and decanters on top of the table, store the essential tools in the drawers beneath the table. Add little decor elements to accentuate the look of the console table, and add to its practical and functionality aspect.
If you are a novice bartender, getting the basic tools and accessories would do the trick, but if you are intending to expand a bit, then consider getting a soda siphon, a vacuum sealer (for mixing the punch), various kinds of bitters, and of course, sharpening your mixology skills while you are at it.
