Shake tequila, lime, and triple sec hard over ice for a bright, frothy pour.
Rum, orgeat, and citrus — a shaken tropical classic that rewards a confident seal.
Rum, pineapple, OJ, and coconut cream shaken until cold and strained over crushed ice.
The shaker setup that works
The Boston shaker is what bartenders actually use. Two tins create a seal that holds under a hard shake, transfers heat faster than a cobbler shaker, and opens cleanly every time. This kit gives you the large tin, small tin, and strainer in one polished package so you can get started without piecing it together.

"I had a Houdini flip top for 10 years until it wore out, and they don't make them anymore. Then I bought another one, just a regular shaker that leaked, and I couldn't get the top off. I decided to buy this Boston shaker kit with the strainer, and it rocks! My "Martoonis" are great, LOL! Excellent and pro product! Thank you!"

"I'd call this one the "Mixonator 5000GX Turbo" Sleek and classy with a durable glassy. Make mine a double! A++ The Boston Shaker can help make any jackhole appear to be a cocktail master. I can't vouch for what your drinks might taste like, but you'll look sexy makin em with this thing in your hand. NOTE: Best results found in married men as vigorous wrist hand shaking stamina may vary with single sexually active males."

"I like it. Plain, sturdy, inexpensive. Takes a bit of getting used to because I don't often make shaken drinks, but it's an essential bar tool and I'm glad I have it. Minor cosmetic blemishes at the bottom where spot-welds hold the bottom to the walls of the shaker cups (both halves) but only on outside."

"Great product"

"I purchase the tin and tin Boston Shaker. This product exceeded my expectations it holds a seal very well and well-balanced. The Japanese jigger is amazing. It feels great in your hand and the one thing I like about it most is, because of the rolled edges, I have lot a lot less spillage with this Jigger than I did with others."

"To be brutally honest this surpassed my expectations. I purchased a $40 something shaker from amazon a few months ago and this shaker is far better for a fraction of the price. Both the tin and pint glass are way better, I would totally recommend awesomedrinks.com to anyone who wishes to purchase any barware!"

"After doing a little research and reading reviews on Amazon, I could have easily spent three times the amount on a shaker set and maybe would not have known the difference. I went with the metal on metal combination after reading that the mix gets colder faster using this method. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend this set to any starting home mixologist. Additionally, my purchase was shipped fast and arrived within a few days packed extremely well, if I could give and extra star for S&H I would :-)"

"The Boston shaker is a classic. Easy to use if you are a beginner mixologist and is also easy to keep clean. The one drawback, as others have mentioned, is that it gets quite cold when shaking with ice. A frost develops quickly and becomes uncomfortable to hold within seconds. The solutions are either to tough it out or to use a hand towel when shaking. Still, good product and worth the money."

"I use the shaker pretty much all the time. Suction is really strong. It got stuck the first time I used it. Make sure to put the top on crooked so you can have some wiggle room while trying to take it off."

"Excellent feel, weight, and quality. I've had a chance to use several Boston Shakers of varying quality and without any doubt this shaker is of very high quality. It's not flimsy in any way nor does it feel like you can crush it. If you're looking for a Boston Shaker that will stand up to several years of use look no further. I will be ordering more from AwesomeDrinks.com"

FAQ
You'll want a jigger for measuring and a bar spoon for stirring spirit-forward drinks. Those are sold separately in the catalog.
Same tins, same strainer — the polished version has a bright mirror finish and the black powder coat version has a matte black finish. Both perform identically.
Tap the base of the large tin firmly with the heel of your hand at the seam where the tins meet. It releases cleanly. Never twist or pry.
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the polished finish. They clean up quickly with warm water and dish soap.
