Trendy cocktails have become all the rage in the last couple of years and along with that, barware has come a long way.
Long gone are the plain glasses, accessories, tools, and bars that all come together to make a stellar drink (or two or three). The tools and glassware have become just as stylish as the drinks served in them and the mixologists that serve them.
Here is how to update your personal bar at home with a touch of class, glamour, and deliciousness!
Gold and brass are showing up everywhere in the home. It is a trend that is definitely not going anywhere anytime soon, and the same goes for glass and barware. We love this decanter and glass set from Fitz and Floyd both because it’s functional and glamorous so you can leave it out just because or especially when you have company.
Fitz and Floyd Daphne 5-Piece Small Whiskey Decanter Set in Gold, $60
A bit more traditional, this set has everything a basic bar will need and it’s not too shabby on the eyes either.
Martha Stewart Collection Barware, $20-$40
Every good bar needs a set of tools to concoct whatever cocktail is requested. We like this set because it’s both stylish and comes with everything you might need.
For the true connoseiur of cocktails, we suggest going a bit more grand with this Galway crystal decanter set from CASHS Ireland. It is a timeless collection that you can hand down from generation to generation. It is also available for engraving.
Galway Crystal Longford Square Decanter Tray Set, $370
We love a good bar cart, because it can roll anywhere you want it to while you’re entertaining, but it can also serve multiple purposes as a side table in a living room, a buffet when hosting a dinner party, or a bar to hold your favorite cocktail ingredients.
And every bar, big or small, needs stylish glasses. We especially like the whimsy of these platinum designs from Fitz and Floyd. Mix-and-match or choose your favorite design.
