Interesting list...but of your 5,000+ cocktails in the database, this must include the ingredients in many rarely made or not-so-great-tasting drinks. A list of the top ingredients in the top 100 (or 500) recipes viewed - or most highly rated drinks - would really give an insight into what you have to have on the back bar or home bar. Is there a data whizz on the team who could crunch those numbers??

Hi Chris. I'll need to chat with our IT team but I envisage a breakdown of all the ingredients in our Hall of Fame Cocktails and how many cocktails each ingredient is used in.

Totally agree with this idea. I made my own attempt at designing the very first 15-20 ingredients for a cocktail bar starter, but most cocktails one could do with them were repetitive or uninteresting, and left many cocktail classics apart. A great expert with a great database could do this far better.
