Looking for creative <\/span>bar cart ideas<\/span> to take your DIY drinks set-up at home to the next level? Oh, have we got a line-up for you! The team here at The Mixer has been kitting out their own bar carts for years, so we know exactly where you should start. Here\u2019s what you need to know…<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What exactly is a bar cart?<\/h2>\n

A bar cart is a versatile piece of furniture that can be used to store and display all of your favorite cocktail-making tools and ingredients. It typically consists of shelves, wheels, and a handle, making it easy to move around your home as needed. However, it can also be a stationary set-up, which makes it less of a cart and more of a bar unit. Whatever works for you, bestie.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Having a bar cart or bar unit at home is not only practical but also adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your space. It provides a convenient and stylish way to entertain guests and impress them with your mixology skills.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The history of the bar cart<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

The history of the bar cart can technically be traced back to ye <\/span>really <\/span><\/i>olden times when people used wheeled serving tables to bring food and drink to guests. However, the modern bar cart as we know it today actually originated in the Victorian era when tea carts were adapted for use as mobile bars.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During the Prohibition era in the United States, when the sale and consumption of alcohol were illegal, the bar cart became a symbol of the speakeasy culture. People would discreetly serve drinks from their homes using bar carts, which could easily be wheeled into a closet or hidden away when not in use.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After Prohibition was repealed in 1933, the bar cart became a staple of home entertaining, with manufacturers producing a wide range of styles and designs to cater to different tastes and budgets. In the 1950s and 60s, the bar cart became a popular accessory in mid-century modern homes, often paired with vintage glassware and cocktail shakers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From iconic authors to legendary musicians, famous figures have long had a fascination with bar carts and the drinks they hold. Ernest Hemingway, for instance, was known for his love of cocktails and kept a collection of liquor and barware on his boat, the Pilar. Meanwhile, Frank Sinatra was often seen with a bottle of Jack Daniel’s on his bar cart, a signature drink that became synonymous with the legendary crooner.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The trend continued with other famous figures, such as Elvis Presley, who kept a bar cart stocked with his favorite drinks in his Graceland home, and Lucille Ball, who often poured herself a drink from her elegant bar cart on her TV show, <\/span>I Love Lucy<\/span><\/i>. Even former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis had a small, elegant bar cart stocked with high-end spirits like Champagne.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From Winston Churchill’s bar cart that was stocked with various brands of scotch, to Dorothy Draper’s inclusion of bar carts in her interior designs, it’s clear that the allure of statement pieces like these has spanned many generations and countless industries. Even modern-day stars like Beyonc\u00e9 and Snoop Dogg have embraced the trend, using their bespoke carts as a key element in their entertaining style.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And let’s never forget Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw and the girly bar cart in her NYC apartment. <\/span>Cosmo<\/span>, anyone?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, the bar cart continues to be a popular item in home decor, with many people using it as a functional and stylish way to store and display their favorite drinks and accessories. The bar cart has also been embraced by the hospitality industry, with many bars and restaurants incorporating them into their decor to create a stylish and functional space for their patrons.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bar cart basics<\/h2>\n

\"Side<\/p>\n

Now that you know that having a bar cart is a cool idea that has been embraced by the likes of Queen B herself, let\u2019s get down to brass tax and discuss bar cart basics. Here are a few important things to bear in mind when you source, design or DIY your own:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Choose the right bar cart for your space<\/h3>\n

When selecting a bar cart, it’s important to consider the size, style, and materials. Choose a cart that fits comfortably in your space and complements your decor.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Set up the bar cart for functionality<\/h3>\n

Arrange your bar cart to maximize functionality by placing frequently used items within easy reach. Group items by category and use trays or baskets to keep things organized.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Stock up on essential tools & supplies\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"Selection<\/p>\n

A bar cart should include essential barware, glassware, and spirits, as well as decorative and functional accessories that fit your personal style and needs. Here are some items that you can consider for your bar cart:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Essential barware<\/span><\/b>. The standard <\/span>cocktail-making kit<\/span><\/a> includes a <\/span>shaker<\/span><\/a>, jigger, strainer, bar spoon, muddler, bottle opener, corkscrew, and ice bucket.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Glassware<\/span><\/b>. This includes <\/span>different cocktail classes<\/span><\/a> such as Martini, coupe, Margarita, highball, Collins, and rocks glasses, Champagne flutes, copper mugs, and Julep cups.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Spirits<\/span><\/b>. Stock your bar cart with the liquors you enjoy and the ones you plan to use for your favorite cocktails. Consider including basics like <\/span>vodka<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>gin<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>rum<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>tequila<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>whiskey<\/span><\/a>, and brandy. Then add a few of your personal favorites. If you love <\/span>Aperol cocktails<\/span><\/a>, get <\/span>Aperol<\/span><\/a>. If your significant other adores <\/span>Campari cocktails<\/span><\/a>, get <\/span>Campari<\/span><\/a>. We always love to throw in a wild card like <\/span>Yellow Chartreuse<\/span><\/a> as well.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mixers<\/span><\/b>: Think tonic water, soda water, ginger ale, cola, orange juice, cranberry juice, and tomato juice.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Garnishes<\/span><\/b>. Like lemons, limes, oranges, cherries, olives, and cocktail onions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Decorative accessories<\/span><\/b>. We love fresh flowers, decorative art, framed photos, and candles.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Functional accessories<\/span><\/b>. This includes bits and bobs like coasters, napkins, straws, and bottle stoppers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember that you can (and should!) personalize your bar cart and make it functional for your specific needs and preferences. For example, if you are a wine enthusiast, you may want to include a wine rack or cooler on your bar cart. If you enjoy making more elaborate cocktails, you may want to add additional mixers, bitters, and syrups.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
