Review on 🍸 Premium OXO Steel Single Wall Cocktail Shaker: Expert Mixology Made Easy by Kenneth Witte

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Single wall, good capacity and no leakage!

In my opinion this is the perfect cocktail shaker. Every other shaker I've had has leaked, especially the ones that can make more than one cocktail at a time. I usually and easily do up to four at a time with this and no leaks! I also like the more focused strainer and spout. Filling is much easier. I like that it is a single wall construction and not a double wall construction. Any knowledgeable and experienced cocktail maker should know that the goal of shaking a cocktail with ice is to infuse and emulsify your cocktail with some of the water from the easily melting ice. Think about it. One of the key features of double wall shakers is that they prevent the ice from melting. This way you can save your hands a little discomfort from a cold shaker, but you'll have a hard time making properly diluted cocktails. I personally like it when my hands are cold because you can feel how cold the cocktail is and it's nice to feel that it's reaching the right temperature. A double-walled shaker will take away that tactile feedback.
