Wet Bar Ideas without Running Water Hookup

This is probably a long shot, but thought this may be the best place to ask for ideas!

I am in the process of making a bar area in my basement, but don't want to get running water to rinse glasses/shakers (as of yet, maybe in the future). What are your solutions, if you have any?
I was thinking about maybe seeing if their are basins with nozzles that can attach to like Culligan water jug? and then maybe drains into another jug?? Something you could set behind the bar to prevent an eyesore?

Let me know! Thanks!

My current Setup

This is what I’m working with right now, but it’s feeling a little crowded. Guess I’ll have to get to mixing :)

good wine, an old painting, and maybe that is as good as a day gets

i painted this little starry sky a while ago for my ex.

we were still together then, and one night we drove way out past the city because she wanted to see the stars without all the street lights. we sat there for a long time, not really saying much, just watching the sky and pretending we were the kind of people who knew what we were doing with life.

i painted this after that night and gave it to her. nothing professional, just a small blue night sky with some shooting stars. we still broke up later, obviously, but i kept a photo of the painting.

today i put it on this little desk screen next to the bottles, and weirdly enough it fits the corner better than i expected. kind of sad, kind of funny, kind of peaceful.

good wine, an old painting, and a memory that does not hurt as much anymore.

not the worst way to spend a night.

Without a freezer, what do you do for ice storage?

I have a home bar on the basement level, kitchen and freezer are upstairs.
I don’t really have a place for a full size freezer, but I want to keep my large clear ice cubes that I make for cocktails down by the bar.
Do any of you have a small storage option for ice cubes. Would like something that I don’t have to shuttle cubes up and down when I need them, just want to make the cubes and leave them in a freezer or something ultra compact. Any thoughts?
