IMO, you can fit all you need to make a good many of the best drinks in a milk crate. Granted, these are for making Donn's recipes...

Light Rum
Gold Rum
Dark Rum
151 Lemon Hart
80 proof demerara (you may drop this and sub dark rum for space)

Allspice dram
Falernum

Lime juice
White Grapefruit juice
Pineapple juice
Orange juice

Honey syrup
Simple syrup
Cinnamon syrup
Passionfruit syrup

Bitters
Pernod or Herbsaint
Nutmeg

Soda water

Measuring devices (spoons and jigger, etc.)

Granted, the size of your containers will dictate whether it all fits in one crate.

Ice, glasses and a blender and you are set!

With this you can make:

Navy Grog
Jet Pilot
Test Pilot (almost, Cointreau)
Rum Barrel (almost, grenadine)
151 Swizzle
Big Bamboo
Cobra's Fang
Demerara Cocktail
Derby Daiquiri
Jasper's Jamaican
Nui Nui
Q.B. Cooler
Zombie Punch (almost, grenadine)
Shark's Tooth (almost, maraschino cherry juice)
2070 Swizzle
...

The drinks that may be missing a small ingredient are passable and your host may have what is needed or you can easily take it with.

So next time you are invited to a cocktail party, show up prepared!

Nice approach. Have booze will travel.

Need to add an "almost" to the Zombie Punch - grenadine

Very informative Swank!

Done. Some of the missing ingredients are very small parts of the drink. Like the grenadine in a Rum Barrel. 6 drops in a drink of about 10 ounces?

I think you just need to add lemon juice, curacao/triple sec, and orgeat and you'll have TV's drinks covered too...

and to expand out of tiki and cover almost everything you dont need a ton more:

rye, bourbon, scotch, gin, vodka, tequila, brandy/cognac;

maraschino, benedictine/chartreuse, french and italian vermouths, campari/amaro....
