Live APINo matching results. Try fewer filters.
This random cocktail generator finds a drink recipe when you are bored of making the same thing. Choose alcoholic or non-alcoholic, type an ingredient such as lime or ginger, or leave the controls open for a complete surprise. Results show the ingredients, measurements, and instructions that the source provides.
Read the recipe before you start. A random result may call for a spirit, garnish, tool, or glass you do not have, and it may not reflect your dietary needs or local alcohol laws. Treat it as an idea to adapt, not a reason to buy a whole bar cart.
Find a cocktail that fits what you have
The drink-type control separates alcoholic and non-alcoholic results. The ingredient field narrows the source pool to drinks that list that ingredient. Use one filter at a time when you want a broad set of choices; a very specific ingredient can produce no match if the source uses a different spelling or has no recipe indexed for it.
The page selects one to eight matching recipes. That is handy for a group deciding between a few options, but it does not plan substitutions or scale the recipe for a crowd. Check the quantities and method on the selected card before mixing.
What a recipe result includes
When the source record is complete, a card has a recipe name, category, alcoholic or non-alcoholic label, glass suggestion, measured ingredients, and instructions. Some records are more complete than others. Measurements such as 'to taste' or 'top up' are copied from the source and need ordinary kitchen judgment.
Randomly does not test the drinks, calculate alcohol content, identify allergens, or confirm that an old recipe entry is current. If an ingredient matters for an allergy, medication, pregnancy, recovery, or other health reason, use a trusted source and professional advice rather than a random recipe card.
A simple way to use random drink ideas
Draw three results, rule out anything that needs a special ingredient, then make the remaining choice from what is already in the kitchen. The non-alcoholic filter works well for mocktail ideas and lets a mixed group start from the same page. For a dinner theme, pair the result with a meal instead of forcing a perfect food match.
Use alcohol responsibly. This tool is for recipe discovery and does not provide serving, safety, or purchasing advice.
Frequently asked questions
Can I find non-alcoholic drink recipes?
Yes. Choose Non-alcoholic in the drink-type filter before drawing a result.
Can I search by ingredient?
Yes. Enter an ingredient such as lime, rum, or ginger. A blank field returns from the broader available pool.
Where do the recipes come from?
The page uses records provided through TheCocktailDB. Details depend on what that source has for the selected drink.
Does the tool calculate alcohol content or allergens?
No. It displays source recipe details only. Check ingredients and seek appropriate advice for dietary, allergy, or health questions.
Why did my ingredient return no cocktail?
The source may not have a matching recipe under that spelling. Try a broader term or clear the filter.
