Frequently Asked Questions
What is pour cost percentage?
Pour cost is the ratio of ingredient cost to menu price. A 20% pour cost means for every dollar of sales, 20 cents goes to ingredients.
Should I include garnish and ice in my cost calculation?
Yes, garnishes, ice, and any specialty rims or syrups all add real cost per drink and should be factored in for accurate pricing.
What's a typical pour cost target for bars?
Most bars target 18-24% pour cost on cocktails, though premium or well drinks may vary outside that range.
