Search For Cocktails Based on What You Have
Howdy, and welcome to What Cocktail Can I Make, a website set up to search for cocktails based on what ingredients you have on hand.
Searching for cocktail recipes based on the ingredients you have is easy, just tick off what cocktail ingredients you have then click “Search For Cocktails!” Then our cocktail engine will tell you what drinks you can make with what you have. It’s basically an easily searchable cocktail database! A cocktail builder based on what you have at hand, if you will.
So if you’re feeling thirsty or in need of a stiff drink, just ask yourself “What cocktail can I make?” We’ll be sure to be able to suggest something you can easily whip up. We’ll even let you know the cocktails you can make if you have just one more ingredient in your bar; a great way to expand your repertoire and slowly build up your ingredients list.
We’re always adding more cocktails, so feel free to check back frequently. We’re also always updating our cocktail builder, so check back for new features and discover new cocktails you can make at home.
With that in mind, there’s literally thousands of cocktail recipes out there. If there’s a recipe you love but we don’t have, feel free to contact us. Also, if a recipe is missing a picture (or you think you have a better one!), send it through. Any feedback is more than welcome, even if you want to debate slight variations on long forgotten and changing cocktail recipes!
A note on garnishes: we’ve chosen to have the search ignore most garnishes. While garnishes matter a lot to a good cocktail, they are often interchangeable. We’d rather you discover a great cocktail and garnish with what is available than be strict.
Just Want to Browse Cocktails?
That’s fine too! We have a huge cocktail database and, although you can search for cocktails by ingredient on the above form, you’re also more than welcome to simply browse all of our cocktails.
Just click “Cocktail Recipes” in the main menu or browse by category/cocktail base spirit. We’ve put some of our more popular categories below. You can also see our ten most popular cocktail recipes below that, then randomly generated quick browsing cocktail recipes. Find something to make and enjoy.
And if you get stuck, come back here, enter the ingredients you have, and we’ll tell you what cocktail you can make.
