As for the Parisian shaker, Lockman says it’s “a Cobbler without the cap.”īelow, top bartenders share their picks of the best cocktail shakers.
It’s a favorite among home bartenders for its ease of use, but professional bartenders will say the top leaks and can be difficult to remove when chilled, making it inefficient for busy services. The cobbler shaker is made up of three parts: a tin, a top with a built-in strainer, and a cap. “It chills faster and has a better seal than glass-on-tin and doesn’t get stuck as easily as the Cobbler.”
“I’ve been using the Koriko tin-on-tin Boston shaker for the last 10 to 12 years,” says Lockman. They fit inside each other, while the liquid creates a natural seal, and a quick shake will cool down the drink with ease. The Boston shakers are made of two, 12- and 28-ounce mixing tins, either with one glass shaker and one tin (glass-on-tin), or two tins (tin-on-tin). “Essentially, there are three different styles of cocktail shakers: glass-on-tin Boston, tin-on-tin Boston or cobbler,” explains Brandon Lockman, lead bartender at Portland’s Red Star Tavern.
