Martini Glass

Martini glasses are iconic stemmed glasses with a wide, shallow bowl
and a long stem. They are used for serving stirred or shaken cocktails, such as
martinis and cosmopolitans. Martini glasses are designed to keep cocktails cold and
showcase their clarity and aromas.

Bar Tools

Bar tools are essential implements used by bartenders and mixologists to create cocktails and other beverages. These tools are designed to perform specific functions in the cocktail- making process, from measuring and mixing to straining and garnishing.

Having the right bar tools and knowing how to use them properly are essential skills for any bartender or home mixologist. With the proper equipment and technique, you can create delicious and visually appealing cocktails for yourself and your guests to enjoy.

Here are some common bar tools you'll find in professional and home bars:

Shaker

Shakers are used to mix ingredients by shaking them with ice. There are two main types of shakers: the Boston shaker, which consists of a metal tin and a mixing glass, and the cobbler shaker, which has three parts—the metal tin, a built-in strainer, and a cap.

Strainer

Strainers are used to separate ice and other solids from the liquid when pouring a cocktail from a shaker or mixing glass into a serving glass. The most common types are the Hawthorne strainer (with a coiled spring) and the Julep strainer (a perforated metal spoon).

Bar Spoon

Bar spoons are long-handled spoons used for stirring cocktails in a mixing glass or shaker. They typically have a twisted handle to facilitate stirring and layering ingredients.vvvvvvvvv

Muddler

Muddlers are used to crush and mix ingredients such as fruits, herbs, and sugar in the bottom of a glass or shaker. They are often made of wood or stainless steel and may have a flat or textured end.

Jigger

Jiggers are measuring tools used to accurately portion out spirits, liqueurs, and other ingredients in cocktails. They typically have two different-sized cups on each end to accommodate various measurement ratios.

Citrus Juicer

Citrus juicers are used to extract juice from citrus fruits such as lemons, limes, and oranges. Handheld and electric citrus juicers are available, depending on the volume of juice needed.

Ice Tongs

Ice tongs are used to pick up ice cubes and place them into glasses or shakers. They help prevent contamination of ice with hands and maintain hygiene behind the bar.

Mallet or Ice Pick

Mallets or ice picks are used to break down large blocks or chunks of ice into smaller, more manageable pieces for chilling drinks.

Speed Pourers

Speed pourers are attachable spouts that fit onto bottles to control the flow of liquid when pouring into drinks, ensuring accuracy and consistency.

Garnish Tools

Garnish tools include various implements such as peelers, zesters, and cocktail picks used to prepare and garnish cocktails with fruit twists, citrus peels, olives, cherries, and other decorative elements.
