This Free App Will Help You Make Cocktails From Ingredients You Already Have.
Some people have fully stocked bars, while others make do with a rotating selection of spirits and ingredients.
If that’s you, then Drinkable is a completely free app that will tell you what cocktails you can make with the ingredients you have on hand. Even better: it works offline, which is ideal if you’re stuck in a cabin with a well-stocked bar but no wireless signal (it happens, trust me).
This app, available for iOS and Android, has no ads or in-app payments, and includes a catalog of more than 150 drinks. This means you can use it to quickly find the recipe for all the common cocktails. To get started, install the app from Google Play or App Store . You can start searching for recipes right away. Honestly, the app works great as a pocket book of recipes for all the classic cocktails.
However, for me, the real fun comes when you go to the Ingredients tab and start typing in what things you have on hand. As you view recipes, you’ll see check marks next to the ingredients you have on hand. Or, if you prefer, you can filter recipes to see only drinks that can be made with the ingredients you have. Click on any of them and you will see the recipe.
Scroll down the list of drinks you can make with the ingredients you have and you’ll see a list of drinks that you’re just one ingredient away from making. Essentially, this app is designed to show you what drinks you can make with what you have on hand, and also show you what you can make with a few more things. I like this because it can help you on your next shopping trip without overwhelming you.
Even if you don’t want to bother with inventory management, this app is a handy reference—and it’s completely free (no in-app purchases). Whether you’re making a quick drink for yourself or a batch of bottled cocktails for a party, you’ll have the knowledge you need.
