What should I buy as a cocktail leaner: a research

Hi!
I am currently developing a web service to aggregate cocktail knowledge. And we have a project to mine the data we have.
The result, we can now calculate "the essential X items you should have to learn Y". Y represents the a certain aspects of knowledge, for example, cocktail or recipes. X represents the number of the items you needed for maximum usage. In simple terms, now we can calculate the 10 items you should buy to mix maximum cocktails!

Do you think it useful?

Hi, I am a web developer currently build a website for cocktail lovers. I encountered a problem the first time learn to mix some drinks: "So, what else can I do with the vodka?" I bought a vodka to mix one drink, if I wanna try some other cocktail recipes, I've got to buy something more. I don't feel like optimizing my wine collection this way. So, I developed an alternative shopping guide for this condition: "These are the 10 items you should have if you wanna mix some drinks efficiently" , in simple terms, I found a way to know what a man should buy as a cocktail beginner. All he has to do is to go to the mall, buy these 10 item, and he can now mix a various kinds of cocktail with these 10. Do you think it's useful service to be further developed? Here're the sample results I calculated: ========================================= 10 esstientails:Kahlúa,Baileys Irish Cream,Grand Marnier,Lime Juice,Vodka,Cranberry Juice,Triple Sec Liqueur,Dry Vermouth,Olive,White creme de cacao, 9 cocktails from the 10:B-52,Cement Mixer,Cosmopolitan,Mudslide,Screaming Orgasm,Vodka Martini,Kamakazie,57 Chevy with a White License Plate,Chocolate Martini, ========================================== the calculation can be set to 10, 20, 30, 40, 50.... esstientials... Do you think it useful? Please tell me whether I should continue this development, thanks alot!
