Entertaining guests? Get fun party ideas here http://ideas.thenest.com/dinner-recipes/entertaining.aspx A party isn't complete without a well-stocked bar cart. Watch for tips from TheNest.com to make sure you have all the essentials. First, layer the bottom level of your cart with alcohol and mixers like club sodas and ginger ale. A well-stocked bar usually includes vodka, bourbon, cognac, gin, rum, scotch, tequila and vermouth. These are standard for most cocktails you might want to create. Make sure there is an ice bucket and cocktail shaker on hand for chilling drinks. Place your glassware on the top of the cart and include a variety of styles such as martini, rock and highball glasses. Set out carafes to hold fresh juices for mixing and prepare bowls of lemons, limes, olives and cherries as garnishes. Lastly, to mix any drink, make sure you have swizzle sticks on standby!
