About The Project


The Barkeep is your cocktail companion. Whether you need a recipe for your favorite cocktail or want to know what you can make with ingredients on-hand, the Barkeep has you covered. The voice interface keeps your interaction hands-free and lets you focus on measuring, mixing, and drinking. Get to entertaining—while the Barkeep takes care of the rest.

I am the product/design co-founder and worked on the voice interface design, interaction mapping, and feature roadmap with my technical co-founder. We've launched on the Amazon skills site and are working towards v2 features to improve the product and monetization paths.

Interaction Design Flow


The interaction design depends on 3 distinct flows:

  • Get Ingredients and Recipe
  • Get Possible Drinks from a List of Ingredients
  • Get Possible Drinks from a List of Ingredients + less than 2 New Ingredients

The MVP product focuses on the first flow of "Get Ingredients and Recipe" with an emphasis placed on returning the relevant information. Future versions will contain the ability to audit all ingredients in a user's bar and return all the drinks that can be made.
