Methodology
Is this guide right for you?
Good fit if:
- You want drinks that actually fit this setting, not just keyword matches
- You want a ranked shortlist rather than a generic occasion list
- You want flavour and strength context alongside the ranking
Poor fit if:
- You need a complete drinks menu for an event
- You need exact bar-specific values — these are data estimates
- You expect a single 'best' drink for every person — occasion fit is personal
