bottlist is the home bar app for people who take their cocktails seriously. Track every bottle, score your collection, unlock classic cocktail families, and build recipes with FoxBot β€” your AI bartender. Whether you're stocking your first home bar or refining a curated shelf, bottlist turns your collection into a craft. MEET FOXBOT β€” YOUR AI BARTENDER Describe what you're in the mood for, and FoxBot builds a cocktail tailored to your bar. "Make a tropical Negroni riff." "Something smoky and stirred." FoxBot drafts the recipe, suggests substitutions, and explains the why behind every choice β€” like having a master bartender on call. YOUR BAR, SCORED The Bar Score gives you a real-time view of your collection across two dimensions: Diversity (how broadly you've stocked) and Depth (how deep you've gone in the categories you love). Climb from Enthusiast to Curator to Mixologist as your bar grows and learn new tips and skills along the way. See exactly where you're strong and what would move the needle next. UNLOCK COCKTAIL FAMILIES The Coverage Map shows which cocktail families your bar can make β€” Old Fashioneds, Sours, Highballs, Stirred, Sparkling, Tropical, Equal Parts, Fizzes, and more. Watch families unlock as you add bottles, and discover new recipes you didn't know your bar could pour. Top Opportunities suggests the single bottle that would unlock the most. Take the guesswork out of shopping and buy spirits that you can put to work. FOUR WAYS TO CREATE A RECIPE β€’ FoxBot β€” Prompt a Recipe. Describe the cocktail you're imagining. β€’ Recipe Generator. Build recipes by theme β€” Spirit, Vibe, or Occasion. β€’ Scan Recipe. Snap a recipe from a book or magazine. β€’ Recreate Recipe. Photograph a bar menu β€” bottlist fills in the ratios and method. PRO TIPS, NOT JUST SPECS bottlist recipes comes with a Pro Tip from an experienced bartender's perspective β€” the substitution notes, technique calls, and context you won't find on a spec sheet. Why BΓ©nΓ©dictine vs. Drambuie. When to express a peel and discard it. The choices that turn a recipe into a craft and improves your outcomes.
