Shopping list
Keep a list of the bottles you want to buy, then move each one into My Bar with a tap once you have it.
The shopping list keeps track of the bottles you want to pick up. It lives in My Bar, and once you’ve bought something, one tap moves it into your bar.

Open the list
Tap the shopping bag at the top right of My Bar. A dot on the bag means there’s something on the list.
Add bottles
There are three ways to put something on the list:
- From a drink you’re close to. On the Cocktails tab in My Bar, rows under

Mark a bottle as bought
Tap Add to bar next to an item. Sakaba ticks it in My Bar, takes it off the list and confirms with a short message. The Cocktails tab updates straight away.
If you tick an item on the Ingredients tab instead, it comes off the shopping list automatically.
Search or clear the list
Use Search list to find an item in a long list.
To empty the list, tap the trash button (Clear list) at the top right and confirm with Clear list. This only clears the list; nothing is added to your bar.
