My friend invited me over for dinner the other night with another mutual friend and asked if she could make us a drink. We were like, sure, and she proceeds to show us this gadget she won in some fundraiser, called the Bartesian. My friend and I about fell over each other, it was so freaking fun. She had all these little pods of different drinks you could make. You fill up the 4 reservoirs with Vodka, Tequila, Whiskey, Gin or Rum (you'd have to choose), as well as water, and it reads the barcode off the pod to make your chosen drink. I think this would be so much freaking fun for a party or BBQ or something. She said she brought it to a tailgate. LOL. bartesian.com/It's kind of pricey ($350?), plus of course the pods too. I may have to ask for one for my February birthday. LOLI just really don't want another appliance sitting on my counter and I don't really have room to store it either.... but I just thought it was so freaking fun and thought it may be a super fun gift idea if you were really stumped. |

I bought my DH one for Christmas last year. They are so fun! I decided to put it on the pull out shelf I had for my Kitchen Aid since I rarely use it. They have so many holiday drinks, too. And even a leather menu.  I'd recommend it, too. |

I am not really a baker, but I won it (from the Pioneer woman!) and it is heavy AF so I just leave it out for the rare chicken i want to shred or something I may bake. I wish I had somewhere to store it! |

We are moving and the new house has a really nice wet bar with nice keg taps, alcohol storage, sink, etc. I think this might be necessary for it!

I've heard of this but totally forgot about it. I don't drink enough even in one year to make this anything I'd ever need, but it sounds really cool! If I did a lot of entertaining I'd get one anyway.

Lol it was a long time ago - I think my DD was 5 (she’s 18 now) and it was when the PW would request a recipe and then pick one as a drawing! It was wild! I also won my first keurig from KevinLovesAmanda! She was the pea who did all those fonts for 2peas! This past year I won an air fryer from my company. Thinking I have probably maxed out my appliance wins. 🤣🤣😑 |

I think it sounds like a lot of fun but we don't drink that much. It would be fun if we had more people over that drank.

We have a Drinkworks that we got last year and it’s been a fun novelty. But I just googled and they are no longer making them and in fact, will reimburse you because the pods that go in them won’t be made much longer. So lucky I saw this thread, otherwise I never would have known.

You can buy the mixer storage shelf if you have a cabinet where it will fit (it’s cheaper on Amazon and elsewhere) rev-a-shelf.com/16775 |

My friend has one of those bartender things. She likes it a lot! Personally I don’t drink at all and DH one has the occasional cocktail so it wouldn’t get much use at our house.

I’ve never heard of this and barely drink anymore, but it sounds like something my (adult) kids would love! |

Do you find that flour and other bits from the mixer get into the cupboard? I like the idea, but think the storage cupboard would be a mess after a few uses from the flour/oats/liquids that sometimes fly out of the mixing bowl. (I'm looking at you, big puff of powdered sugar that made a cloud over my mixer the other day!) |

I just watched a video on YouTube and I am sold on it. We don’t drink that much but once in a while we do enjoy a cocktail. I’m thinking my birthday is coming up!

You can buy the mixer storage shelf if you have a cabinet where it will fit (it’s cheaper on Amazon and elsewhere) rev-a-shelf.com/16775No, its not painted, it was before he was partnered with them. Mine is just read, I think it was one of the first colors that came out! That shelf is neat, unfortunately ALL of my cabinets have some sort of pull out mid-drawer. I could take one of them out (the KA would be too tall and probably too heavy to sit on it) but I never explorered that! We have a Drinkworks that we got last year and it’s been a fun novelty. But I just googled and they are no longer making them and in fact, will reimburse you because the pods that go in them won’t be made much longer. So lucky I saw this thread, otherwise I never would have known. OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats awful but also nice that they are reimbursing you!!! OMG I want this. ETA: Yeah, I ordered it. I’m a little bummed that it won’t be here for NYE, but it will be here in early January. LOLI am jealous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have fun!!!! Tell me which drinks you got!!!! |

I have never gotten flour, pwd. sugar, etc inside the cabinet. On the floor yes, but never in the cabinet I also have a slide out underneath the mixer that holds all the KA accessories. Best investment ever! |

I would rent one for a party but I don’t think I’d want it sitting on my counter.

Update: I received notification tonight that mine has already shipped and will be delivered on Dec 29th, which means NYE should be very fun! I quickly ordered capsules (a whole bunch of different ones) and hoping everything is delivered when it says it will be. 🤞🏻🥂🍹🍸🍷

So lucky I saw this thread, otherwise I never would have known. Holy crap. DH bought a Drinkworks over the summer. We had no idea they weren't going to make the pods anymore. Thanks for the tip, DH will be submitting for reimbursement. |
