A cocktail shaker is a must-have behind any bar. CILIO’s model is a reliable choice for professional and home bartenders alike. The matte stainless steel container is easy to grip and keeps your drink cool. The shaker tin and lid fit together precisely, so nothing leaks. The built-in strainer keeps bits of fruit from slipping into your glass. Whether you shake your cocktail horizontally at shoulder height or vertically in front of your body is a matter of personal preference—professional bartenders are divided on this, too. What matters is shaking vigorously and for long enough. For cocktails without syrup, that means 10 seconds; if you add syrup, cream, or milk, double the time. For the best drinking experience, serve your cocktail in pre-chilled glasses.
