“Clean workbook, easy to update, and much better than guessing margins from rough notes."
Tom A. | Restaurant Manager

The problems it solves

Most beverage programs lose margin for predictable reasons: ingredient costs are scattered, pack sizes are inconsistent, wastage is ignored, and pricing decisions are made too late.

This toolkit gives you one clean costing system so you can:

  • calculate the real cost per drink

  • review COGS % and gross profit clearly

  • catch high-cost items before the menu goes live

  • update supplier prices once and refresh the workbook faster

  • share a clean summary without rebuilding reports manually

It is built to make pricing decisions clearer, faster, and easier to defend.

How it works

Enter your ingredient costs, build your drinks, and instantly see where your menu is making money and where it is quietly leaking margin.

The toolkit helps you calculate real cost per drink, review COGS and gross profit clearly, and catch pricing problems before the menu goes live.
