Calculators

Bottle yield and cost

How many drinks a bottle makes, which bottle runs out first, what a number of serves needs and how to batch it — and, if you enter what you paid, what each drink costs.

Everything in this can be mixed days ahead and kept cold. It is one of the drinks to build a party menu around.

How it works

Serves per bottle is the bottle size divided by the recipe’s measure, rounded down to whole drinks. Bottles needed is rounded up, because you can’t open a third of one. Spirits, liqueurs, wine and alcohol-free bottles start at the size the catalogue records, or a standard 700ml where it records none; change any of them to match what you have. Juice, syrup, mixers and bitters start with no size at all — we won’t guess one.

Prices are yours alone. Nothing is filled in, nothing is looked up, and what you type is not saved or sent anywhere — reload the page and it is gone. The figures are a planning aid for a host, not stock control or financial advice. For working out what to buy for a crowd, the party calculator starts from the guest count instead. Please plan for fewer drinks rather than more, and have alcohol-free options to hand.
