I use a <a href="http://www.strobist.blogspot.com/2006/07/how-to-diy-10-macro-photo-studio.html" rel="nofollow">very inexpensive homemade lightbox</a> and all the lamps I can scramble together. I set up the drinks, then take tons of photos, usually using the flash as well. I use Google Picasa for my photo editing. Light the is big key. Take a few test shots, rearrange the lamps if you need to, and just keep playing. Thanks for the kind words, Fred.

I've tried it myself with genever, and I can't say that I enjoyed it very much. By the way, you've got great photos. Would you mind sharing how you set up your shots?
