# An ADK Agent integrated with MCP Client

This web application was developed using Google ADK (Agent Development Kit) and MCP (Model Context Protocol). Specifically, the Agent relies on the Google ADK. A local MCP server instance, established using custom server code designed for cocktail data management, facilitates data retrieval. The web application acts as an MCP client to fetch cocktail information via this local server.

This example demonstrates how you can chat with the app to retrieve cocktail details from [The Cocktail DB](https://www.thecocktaildb.com/) site using a local MCP server

## Create & Activate Virtual Environment (Recommended)

```bash
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
```

## Install ADK

```bash
pip install .
```
