Why This Is Different
Other apps give you thousands of one-off recipes to scroll through and hope you find what you need. Grimoire maps how drinks are connected — by family, by flavor, by technique — so every cocktail is a doorway to the ones around it.
The Question
"I need a cocktail menu for this event and I don't know where to start."
Tell us the event. We'll build the menu.
Choose your event type — wedding, corporate, birthday, festival, seated dinner — and Grimoire recommends drinks matched to the occasion, scored by speed, cost, and guest appeal. Swap drinks in and out. Get a full shopping list, bottle counts, staffing guidance, and prep timeline.
Plan an EventThe Question
"A guest says 'I like smoky and citrusy things.' What do I make?"
Search by flavor, not by name.
Grimoire maps 112 flavor notes across 10 families — from smoke and peat to tropical and floral. Search for a flavor and see every drink that expresses it, every ingredient that carries it, and every spirit that brings it. When a guest describes what they like, you already know where to go.
Browse FlavorsThe Question
"I know the Daiquiri. What else lives in that world?"
Every drink has a family. Explore the tree.
A Daiquiri is a Sour. A Sour with soda is a Fizz. A Fizz with egg white is a Silver Fizz. Grimoire maps these family routes so one drink opens a path through dozens of cousins, variations, and evolutions. Swap a sugar, change a spirit, add a modifier — the family tree shows you what's possible.
See FamiliesThe Question
"I have bourbon, Campari, and sweet vermouth. What can I make?"
Search by what you have. See what you can build.
Filter by spirit, by ingredient, by what's on your shelf. Grimoire doesn't just match exact recipes — it understands substitutions. Don't have Campari? It'll show you what works instead, and why, based on the flavor profile of each ingredient.
Search DrinksThe Question
"What's the difference between all these gins?"
We wrote the book. Literally. Nine of them.
Every spirit category in Grimoire is backed by original research from Legend of Spirits — 846,000 words across nine volumes covering cocktails, gin, mezcal, whiskey, rum, vodka, wine, liqueurs, and beer. When you look up a spirit, you're not reading a marketing blurb. You're reading the story of how it's made, why it tastes that way, and what makes it different.
Browse SpiritsThe Question
"I want to build a curated menu for my bar."
Build it, save it, share it, plan against it.
Add drinks to your menu as you browse. Save multiple menus for different seasons or venues. Then run any menu through the event planner to get bottle counts, costs, and prep timelines. Your menu is a living document, not a static list.
