    To create a fully functional home bar, you should consider having several pieces of gear on hand. A quality cocktail shaker set is a must for mixing up various drinks. This often includes a jigger for measuring, a muddler for crushing ingredients, and a strainer for achieving a smooth pour. A bar spoon helps stir and layering drinks, while a cutting board and a sharp knife are necessary for preparing fresh garnishes.

    Glassware in various shapes and sizes, such as highball glasses, rocks glasses, martini glasses, and wine glasses, is essential to serve different drinks.
