Plus, it will cost less if we assemble a list of main ingredients (like citrus and juices) and go buy them ourselves. For minor ingredients (like orange bitters) it would work to either have it at someone's place who has such ingredients, or have people bring what ingredients they have on hand to the judging. Another idea is to have each judge be responsible for 2 or 3 entries. The judge brings (and buys if necessary) the ingredients and is in charge of making the drinks assigned to them. So it's fair we can save receipts for purchases and share costs. It shouldn't be much money if we avoid using expensive rums.
