cocktail-from-what-i-have

Make a genuinely good drink from the bottles already on your shelf — no special trip, no 12-ingredient recipe. Use when asked what can I make with [spirits], cocktail from what I have, I've got [bottles] what can I drink, or make me a drink without buying anything. Produces two or three cocktails you can build right now with ratios, a method, sensible substitutions for what you're missing, and a zero-proof version — scaled to how many you're making.

Cocktail From What I Have

Most cocktail advice assumes a stocked bar and a shopping list. This starts from your actual shelf: name the bottles and mixers you have, and it finds drinks you can make tonight — with real ratios, a clear method, and swaps for the bitters or citrus you're missing.

What This Skill Produces

  • Two or three make-now cocktails — built only from what you have (plus obvious pantry items)
  • Ratios and method — measurements and steps, shaken/stirred/built, glass and ice
  • Smart substitutions — what to swap for a missing modifier, citrus, or syrup
  • A batch note — how to scale for a group without watering it down
  • A zero-proof version — a legit mocktail, not just juice

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • Your bottles — spirits, liqueurs, vermouth, bitters
  • Mixers & fresh — sodas, juices, citrus, syrups, herbs on hand
  • Gear — shaker or not, ice type, glassware (rough is fine)
  • The vibe — refreshing, boozy/spirit-forward, sweet, or crowd-pleaser
  • How many — one drink or a round for guests

Framework: Build From The Shelf

  1. Inventory first. Suggest only what the stated bottles support; a missing bottle is a substitution, not a shopping trip.
  2. Balance the classic ratio. Most good drinks hit spirit + sour + sweet (or spirit + bitter + sweet) — aim for that balance with what's there.
  3. Substitute intelligently. No lime? Lemon. No simple syrup? Sugar + water or honey. No specific bitters? Note it's optional or swap.
  4. Match method to drink. Citrusy/juicy → shake; spirit-only → stir; fizzy → build in the glass.
  5. Scale without diluting. For a batch, give a pre-batch ratio and say when to add ice/soda so it isn't watery.

Output Format

From your shelf: [bottles] · [vibe] · [# drinks]

🍸 [Cocktail] — [spirit] [oz] · [modifier] [oz] · [citrus/sweet] [oz]. Method: [shake/stir/build] → [glass/ice]. Missing X? [sub]. 🍸 [Cocktail] — …

Batch for [N]: [pre-batch ratio + when to add ice/soda]. Zero-proof: [mocktail with method].

Quality Checks

  • Every cocktail is buildable from the stated inventory (or an offered sub)
  • Ratios and a method are given, not just an ingredient list
  • Substitutions are offered for likely-missing items
  • A batching note scales it without dilution
  • A real zero-proof option is included

Anti-Patterns

  • Recipes needing a shop run for half the ingredients.
  • No measurements — "some gin, a splash of this."
  • Ignoring the gear — telling someone to shake with no shaker.
  • A mocktail that's just juice with no balance.
  • Over-boozing a crowd batch that should be sessionable.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "I've got gin, vermouth, and a lemon — what can I make?"
  • "Cocktail from whiskey, bitters, and orange, no shaker."
  • "Make me something refreshing with tequila and soda."
  • "Round of drinks for 6 from what's in my cabinet."
  • "Something boozy and stirred, and a mocktail for my friend."
