Whisky soda batch: 1 bottle (750ml) + 2L soda = 12 drinks। Sangria: 2 bottles wine + fruit + soda = 15-20 glasses। Mojito batch: mint + lime + rum + soda। Ice: 1-2 kg per person — ALWAYS the bottleneck!।
Planning
2-3 drinks/person first 2h, then 1/h। 20 guests, 4h: 120-160 drinks। 10-13 bottles total।

The #1 batch cocktail mistake: not pre-diluting. Professional bartenders add ice water to all batch cocktails. For citrus-based drinks (margaritas, daiquiris, whiskey sours), add the citrus juice no more than 2-3 hours before serving — it oxidizes and loses brightness. Keep batches refrigerated until service.
