How to Shake and Strain Cocktails Properly?

MORE

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

Ensure you have the following,
-Boston Shaker or Cobbler Shaker
-Mixing Tin (for Boston Shaker)
-Strainer (Hawthorne or Julep)
-Quality Ice Cubes
-Ingredients for Your Chosen Cocktail

Step 2: Add Ingredients to Shaker

Place all liquid ingredients into the shaker. If the recipe calls for citrus juice, add it last to prevent premature curdling.

Step 3: Add Ice

Fill the shaker with ice. Use enough to thoroughly chill the ingredients but not too much to dilute the cocktail excessively.

Step 4: Seal and Shake

For a Boston Shaker, place the mixing tin over the glass, creating a tight seal. Hold the shaker with one hand on the glass and the other on the tin. Shake vigorously, using a smooth, controlled motion for about 10-15 seconds.

Step 5: Strain into Glass

For a Boston Shaker, gently tap the side of the tin to release the seal. Hold the glass at a slight angle and strain the cocktail through the built-in strainer. If using a Cobbler Shaker, strain directly from the shaker.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Add any required garnishes, and serve your perfectly shaken and strained cocktail in the appropriate glassware.

  • Amaretto

    Amaretto is a liqueur, a sweet Italian liqueur that originated in Saronno. There are different brands and each have their slight variations and ingredients vary from apricot kernel, bitter almonds, peach stones or almonds, all these are natural sources of the benzaldehyde that brings the almond flavour to the liqueur. Amaretto usually contains a 21% to 48% Alcohol by Volume.

    Amaretto liqueur can be drunk straight or used as an ingredient in mixed drinks, or with coffee.

    The name Amaretto originated from the Italian word amaro, meaning bitter. Amaretto's bitterness is derived from the drupe kernel and although the bitterness of Amaretto tends to be mild, sweeteners and at time sweet almonds are added to enhance the flavour of the final product.

  • Southern Comfort

    Southern Comfort is an American, fruit flavoured whiskey liqueur. Originally created by bartender Martin Wilkes Heron in New Orleans in 1874, the brand has gone through closure during the Prohibitions and transitions and transfer of ownership.

    Spirit Historian Chris Morris describes the original recipe of Southern Comfort in an episode of The Thirsty Traveler titled "A River of Whiskey"

    Heron began with good-quality bourbon and would add: An inch [2.5 cm] of vanilla bean, about a quarter of a lemon, half of a cinnamon stick, four cloves, a few cherries, and an orange bit or two. He would let this soak for days. And right when he was ready to finish, he would add his sweetener: he liked to use honey. - Wikipedia

    In the United States, Southern Comfort is available as 42 US proof (21% ABV), 70 US proof (35% ABV), 100 US proof (50% ABV), and 60 US proof (30% ABV) in Australia. Varieties including additional flavorings, such as lime and caramel, were introduced by Brown–Forman in the latter years of their ownership. These were discontinued by Sazerac - Wikipedia

  • Cranberry Juice

    Cranberry Juice is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, the compounds that fight free radicals and kills harmful bacteria. Cranberry juice is a home remedy for Urinary Tract Infection.
