Version 2.0.0 contains 16,893 drink recipes and 66,281 linked ingredient rows. Use recipe_id to join the two tables and ordinal to keep ingredients in their listed order.

Start with the Drinks and Cocktails Database product page. Its sample previews and field statistics show the structure and completeness of each table before purchase. The Usage, Publication, and Master options describe the rights available for different projects.

For a practical walkthrough of searching drinks, joining ingredients, and reading source-status fields, see Find the drink, then find what goes in it.

Some historical recipes and quantities need review before they are presented as tested instructions. Treat a blank amount as missing, and verify any drink you plan to serve or publish against your own standards.
