Thanks so much for the info Josh.
Not sure if it matters, but I do keep all of these ingredients 
closed/refrigerated.

Was in a supermarket the other day restockng some of these and noticed some 
interesting dates on the bottles:
Vermouths - the date was well over a year away
Roses Lime - was a year away
Roses Grenadine - was 2 years away

>> -Coconut milk

Yep, forgot the name to that one - thanks!

Also, I assume Angostura bitters probably lasts years as well - I don't see 
how one can run out of this too soon.
