Learn bartending based on things you already have

Are you a bartender?
Do you wanna learn to mix some drinks on wine you already have?

Here's a simple way have a good start, a website called Wacanai could give you suggestions about what you can make with the things in your fridge even with few wine collections.




After registering an account on the site, let's start to logg ingredients we have in hand.
Try to hover your mouse pointer on any items in the "needs:" list, you'll see a plus button, click on it, the item would be appear in your resource basket (pretty much like a shopping cart)

In the lower part of the webpage, you will find the item has been added to your resource basket. Here comes the magic part, Wacanai can suggest you what can you do with the things you have. It means the more you manage what you have in Wacanai, you get more results.




Now, after logging about 10 items, like what I have done here:




Click on the "Your match" on the top menu.



Now you know what you can do with the things you have. The result is dynamic even without your management for resource. The result can be also effected by how-2's shared by other users.






Wacanai can tell you what are the most valuable items you should own. The match index shows how many thing you can do after having the item. Take one of my results, "Sweet Vermouth" for example, I can make actually make 12 more cocktails after having it.





And that's it! Now you can learn how to mix some drinks based on what you already have, save some money for yourself. You can also post the a cocktail mix on Wacanai, share it, or simply treat it as your personal cocktail database~
