Chill out area - Episode 6 /7 - Outdoor Bar

When the weather is warm and sunny, there's nothing quite like gathering with friends at an outdoor bar to enjoy some drinks, food, and good conversation. Outdoor bars provide the perfect setting to soak up the sun, enjoy the fresh air, and let loose with your friends.

Creating an outdoor bar in your garden or terrace is a great way to entertain guests and enjoy the outdoors while indulging in your favorite drinks. Whether you're looking to create a permanent outdoor bar or a temporary one for a special occasion, there are a few key factors to consider. 

First, think about the location of your outdoor bar. You want it to be easily accessible for guests, but also in a spot that provides some privacy and shelter from the elements. If you have a covered terrace or gazebo, that would be an ideal location. If not, consider adding an umbrella or canopy to provide some shade and protection from the sun and rain.

Next, consider the design and layout of your outdoor bar. You can purchase pre-made bar units, or create a DIY bar using materials such as wood, metal or stone. Consider the size and shape of your space, as well as the number of guests you'll be entertaining, when deciding on the size and layout of your bar.

When it comes to stocking your outdoor bar, think about the types of drinks you and your guests enjoy. You can opt for a full bar with a variety of spirits, mixers and garnishes, or keep it simple with just a few favorite drinks. Don't forget to include a variety of glasses, ice, and cocktail tools such as shakers and strainers.

In addition to drinks, you'll also want to consider food options. Depending on the size of your bar and the occasion, you can serve light bites such as cheese and crackers or chips and dip, or go all out with a full spread of appetizers and snacks.

Finally, consider the ambiance of your outdoor bar. Adding lighting, such as string lights or lanterns, can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. You can also incorporate music or other entertainment options to enhance the experience for you and your guests.

Creating an outdoor bar in your garden or terrace can be a fun and rewarding project. With some careful planning and attention to detail, you can create a space that is both functional and beautiful, and that will be enjoyed by you and your guests for years to come.
