On the liquor/wine rack......in this picture it is a little bare...but


Patron Silver Tequila Jack Gin Rum Vodka vermouth Amaretto Scotch Cognac Brandy

along with a few "standard mixers" along with some fun things....godiva chocolate, kaluha, espresso vodka

I always have a bottle of stoli vodka in the freezer as well, for mixers for it's silly to experiment with martinis/mixers with gray goose and such.

On the bottom I always , champaign, a couple bottles of white and a couple of red. usually at least 2 bigger bottles of yellow tail or other "cheaper" wine for guests who say "can i have an ice cube in my wine"

for my, my go-to-non-special wines are usually blackstone merlot, bogle petite syrah, jlohr and simi.



I am itching to get a 12 bottle wine fridge....



in my fridge fridge, I usually stock perrier, club soda, tonic, regular coke in a can, diet, and 7 up. cranberry juice orange juice and milk.

I have an office-type water cooler as well.

[CakesBySarah]

Bottled water, various sodas and beers, cranberry juice, orange juice, milk, vodka, flavored vodka, more vodka, bourbon, tequila, rum, a variety of liqueurs (I have a rack similar to Murphy's, but my S.O. typically empties it out on a regular basis, so the selection constantly changes) and I usually keep at least 2 bottles each of inexpensive but tasty Shiraz and white wine.

No, I'm not a lush... LOL... I like to make LOTS OF CHOCOLATES.

[bubbamom]

2% milk, orange/citrus juice, red wine, white wine, unsweetened green tea, Willards Water, and usually tomato juice.
