A good cocktail shaker is the most essential tool in mixology and the Parisian shaker gives you the chance to achieve the visual flair. Cocktail shakers are used to mix your ingredients properly, add texture, dilution and chill your cocktails to the perfect temperature. They can be used for shaking or stirring a cocktail.

The Parisian shaker, also known as a French shaker is designed so that the top fits tightly into the bottom shaker tin to create a seal. An easy-to-use shaker that allows a great mix of flavors whilst introducing tiny air bubbles creating texture. Cocktails containing fruit juice will give a slightly frothy appearance whereas egg whites & cream create a foamy top. Dilution and temperature play an important role in creating the perfect cocktail. The temperature of the drink affects the level of dilution as the colder a drink is, the less the drink dilutes. Not enough dilution and your cocktail will be potent, too much dilution your drink becomes weak and watery. Correct dilution enhances your cocktail so the flavors can be fully experienced. Typically, cocktails that contain juice, cream or eggs should be shaken.

Stirring cocktails is best when the ingredients is only alcohol and doesn’t require layering and for the addition of sparkling ingredients, such as soda.

For easy use:

1. Add the ingredients to the 20oz shaker tin. If using egg, it is best to perform a dry shake first before adding the ice. Fill the shaker ½ to ¾ full of ice.
2. Put the lid on top and lightly tap with the palm of your hand to seal. You should be able to lift the shaker by the lid with one hand slightly without the tin and lid coming apart.
3. Place one hand on the bottom and the other securely on top. Shake vigorously for a slow count of 15. Some recipes will require you to shake for longer. Most often the shaking is completed when the outside of the shaker tins become frosty.
4. When finished shaking, place the shaker down. Hold the bottom shaker tin firmly, use the heel of your other hand to give a sharp whack where the shaker tin and lid meet. This should break the seal. If it doesn’t release turn the shaker slightly and whack again at a slightly different angle.
5. Remove the lid and strain your cocktail into the serving vessel using the hawthorn strainer.
