Made of porous sandstone, they contain an explosion of colors that can complement any room decor. The trail of colors shows the stone in a smooth texture. The colors of shifting sands or a complex pattern of hues present a stunning visual effect. These coasters are fade and chip resistant too. There are many different types of sandstone coasters you can purchase. Some forms of sand stone are more porous than others and thus can hold more of the liquid condense. These coasters are mostly coated with varnish to add a protective coating to them, but this does not detract them from their absorbent quality. Marble Coasters - Marble drink coasters are very elegant. The colors are reminiscent of ancient times, since the stone itself has existed from the very beginning in history. These coasters are hand crafted and polished and if you look closely you may be able to see traces of fossils in the surface. There is a wide range of options for you to choose from in this variety from coasters with images of clouds to those that are midnight black or fiery red. Silver Coasters- These coasters protect the tabletop and fine table linens with grace. Suitable for engraving, these splendid coasters can be embellished with delicate carvings to serve as the perfect symbol of class. Natural Slate Coasters - Natural slate is a popular material used in the manufacture of drink coasters. Since slate forms in layers in the environment, each drink coaster has a slightly different color. This occurs due to the collection of chemicals present at each stage of the formation of the slate. Each layer seems to blend into the other and creates seamless lines of color that present a very elegant surface. Limestone Coasters - Drink coasters made from limestone are very absorbent. You can see the weathering of the rock in the colors of these coasters. A golden color will make you think of bright sunny days in the depths of winter while one that is blue-gray in color will help you recall images of the ocean and soft summer breezes. Leather Coasters - These coasters are made out of leather and are very elegant looking on your desk, table, or conference room. Exclusively used as professional gifts, these coasters are not suitable for placing hot drinks. Plastic Coasters - Made of plastic these coasters are very light weight and inexpensive. You can also get custom made plastic coasters with your own photo laminated inside them. Whatever the type, at the foundation of every coaster should be a soft material that can slide easily along a glass or finished table surface without melting, sticking, scratching or damaging a varnish finish. Two materials commonly used for this purpose are felt fabric and cork board. Thematic Coasters Depending on your décor or your celebration, you can choose from a wide variety of themed coasters: • For a neutral design for an event, fruit images on coasters are the best. These have the photographs and paintings of apples, lemons, strawberries, and even pomegranates. • If you are a vehicle lover, you can opt for neutral drink coaster motifs of vehicles. From antique cars to modern race cars and model T-type cars; you can get them all. You can also go for fire trucks, fishing boats, sailing vessels and old fashioned pirate ships. The most elegant ones in this category would be ones with the picture of an antique bicycle or tricycle on it. • For beach parties, you better get the ones with pictures of seashells or beach scenes or waves crashing against the sands and rocks. Another option is a picture of ocean washed pebbles or river pebbles. • For animal lovers, coasters with images of a horse, cat or puppy would be ideal while for your children’s’ birthday you can go for cartoon coasters to be placed under the milkshake glasses. • But what if you want a coaster to suit your every décor and theme? For this purpose, you can never go wrong with abstract drink coasters with all kinds of colors and patterns in them. Cleaning your coasters The right drink coaster is one that is durable enough to just pop in the dishwasher. The porcelain glass coasters and plastic ones are good for the purpose. By doing so, you can keep your coasters free of bacteria. Sometimes stains on the coasters do not come off with just a damp cloth because different liquids stain the coasters in different ways. Cleaning your coasters regularly can renew their absorbent properties. You can get rid of fresh stains by washing them right away in cold water. But the more stubborn ones need a light scrubbing with a sponge or soft brush. Be careful never to use a harsh agent to scrub the surface of the coaster. When you buy a stone drink coaster set, take care not to put them in the dishwasher. Although they do not need regular cleaning, better wipe them off occasionally with a damp cloth.

For enjoying your drink fully, you need more than just a bottle of wine. You need something that can add some serious class to your drinks and make them taste perfect. You need decanters. Decanters are vessels used to hold the decantation of wine and sometimes whisky, brandy, and water that usually contains sediment. They may also be used as serving vessels and are designed to hold a full bottle of wine. Read more... History of decanters Earlier, decanters were filled with wine from amphorae and then brought to the table where the servants served it to their masters. The Romans used glass decanters as glass was common at that period but after their fall, decanters began to be made of bronze, silver, gold and earthenware due to scarcity of glass. The venetians of the renaissance period reintroduced glass decanters, this time with a long slender neck and a wide body in order to expose the wine to maximum air for oxygenation. In the mid eighteenth century, British people added decorative stoppers to the decanters for limiting air exposure. Since then, the basic design of decanters has been the same. The importance of decanters From a casual get-together with friends to a more formal dinner party, wine decanters play a vital role in enhancing the flavor of your wine. A good wine decanter can help your wine to breathe properly and improves its quality markedly thereby maximizing the enjoyment of that wine. Wines, typically the red ones that age in bottles may grow sediment after several years. This is quite normal and is a sign that the wine is alive and natural and hasn't been excessively filtered. Decanting allows you to pour the wine into another vessel leaving the sediment in the bottle. Decanting also softens the tannins in your wine and helps to develop a more complex aroma in the wine that might normally take years. So, whether it is an age old expensive wine or a tannic, youthful one, you need to decant. Also, serving wine from a decanter no doubt adds class to the table. The science behind the functioning of decanters Decanters necessarily add a flavor to your wine and a spark to the festivities but there is a purely scientific reason behind their functioning. Before the wine has been decanted, it contains small amounts of sulfur compounds that are potent enough to cover up the fresh fruit aromas of the wine. They act as masking agents and thus hide the positive characteristics of the wine. It is the natural sulphur present in the grapes and yeasts that help them turn into wine. A bottle of wine that has not been decanted therefore contains several sulphuric compounds and is called closed wine. And a closed wine is just like a closed flower that doesn’t give you the pleasure that it can give when it is in full bloom. It is only when the petals open that its real aroma can be enjoyed. Similarly, a wine also needs to breathe in order to open up and become much more aromatic and expressive. And for it to breathe or aerate properly, it needs to be exposed to oxygen for some time. In order to do so in a proper way, a decanter comes in handy. It allows the wine to mix properly with the oxygen and oxygenate that result in the quick aging of the wine. For example, a wine that needs to be kept for 10 years to give its best flavor can do so by getting decanted in a decanter for only a few hours. Research says that for every 20 minutes in a decanter, a wine can age the same as a year in a bottle. You know very well that for a wine to be appreciated, it needs to smell its best and to do so, you either need to wait for long years with your wine in the bottles or simply a few hours with your wine in the decanters. And obviously, the second option is preferable for everyone, including you. Isn’t it? In fact, if your wine can't stand up to decanting, it can’t stand up to drinking either. How to use decanters If you use your decanters in a proper way, they can be the key to truly enjoying your wine. Simply follow the given steps and enjoy that beverage of yours that will then turn heavenly. • Decanters have been used to filter sediment laden wines for years. These sediments may occur due to the long duration of keeping the wine or non clarification during the wine making process. Before decanting a bottle containing sediment, let the bottle rest in an upright position for some time for the sediment to settle down to the bottom. • Keep the bottle angled to prevent any sediment from making its way and slowly pour the wine into the decanter. • Since older wines have a lot more sediments, they need to be poured more slowly. Also, they need to be decanted immediately before serving so that less oxidation takes place. For such wines, touch the wine bottle tip to the top of the decanter to reduce the aeration to the maximum extent. • It is better to light a candle for low-level illumination. In order to see the darker sediments, position the bottle's neck in front of the flame. • Place the decanter exactly under the lip of the bottle to pour the clarified wine. Once most of the wine has been poured into the decanter, insert a stopper to avoid spillage. It is better to leave a little wine in the original bottle with the sediments. • Swirl the wine in the decanter to provide more aeration. • A wine less than ten years old should be decanted for least an hour or two in order to oxidize with full potential. Before the guests arrive, it would be better if you check its level of aeration completion and leave it if it is not satisfactorily aerated. While consuming or serving old wines, it is preferable to insert stoppers in their bottles between the pours. • For wines with non settled fine sediment or wine bottles that have not been sitting upright and still contain dissolved sediment, light filtration is required. To do so, use food grade mesh screen funnels that are non reactive to the wines. The best option is to use a cheese cloth lined funnel during decantation as cheesecloth is inert and does not add any flavor to the wine. • If you are a drinker who wants a more controlled and subtle exposure of your wine to air, better go for double decanting. For this, at first decant the wine into the wine decanter .Then, clean the original bottle of any sediment and decant the wine back into the wine bottle. This process does not leave the wine in contact with a large surface area of air for a prolonged period but aerates the wine sufficiently for a perfect taste during the back and forth pours. Double decanting is great if you need to take your wine to your friend’s house for a wine tasting or dinner as it limits the exposure of the wine to excess air during the transportation. The need for decanters We need decanters for four prime reasons listed below: • Decanters provide aeration- Simply uncorking a bottle does not let your wine breathe properly. The bottle opening is too small for this. For a wine to stretch its legs, a broader area of contact with the air is required that is provided by the decanters. When wine breaths first after being closed in the bottle for long, it undergoes an amazing transformation in its taste and smell. A decanter can only provide this aromatic unfurling to the wine, which also smoothes some of its harsher aspects. • Decanters are vital for presentation- Besides improving the quality of wine, decanters also have an aesthetic appeal. Serving wine in a pretty decanter brings elegance and beauty to any party and highlights the wine. This lets the guests know the importance of the wine served. Using stunning decanters in many French and Italian restaurants to serve wine as well as water is a common style and it is done mostly to display the liquid’s clarity and enhance the elegance and class of the dinner table. • Decanters remove the sediments- The solid sediment that precipitates in a wine bottle with aging needs to be filtered first before serving. Imagine serving unfiltered wine full of sediment to your guest. The sediment not only sullies the appearance of the wine but also affects its taste. To avoid this, decanters are needed. They not only clear the wine of sediments, you can also use them to serve the very wine. • Decanters improve the quality of your wine- Decantation improves the taste of inexpensive wines to such an extent that they may seem to be high quality expensive ones. Types of decanters Decanters are of various styles, sizes and shapes and are most often made of glass or lead crystal. • Lead crystal decanters Lead crystals have a much more sparkly appearance than regular glass. This happens because; lead crystals are a combination of lead oxide and molten glass. Thus, they increase the index of refraction of light over that of regular glass. However, they are not recommended any more to be used in decanters as a long period of seated liquid in a lead decanter causes the lead in the container to seep into the liquid and may even lead to lead poisoning if consumed. • Glass decanters Glass decanters are usually made of inert colorless glass, in order to clearly exhibit the wine. Sometimes they come colored too. Some glass decanters come with decorative a stopper lid that has a rod in the centre to aid decanting. The shape of the decanters is mostly tall and upright which gives it an elegance and fragility. Other shapes are also available. Most of the modern day decanters are resistant to breakage and dishwasher safe. There is a wide range of decanting vessels to choose from. This includes antique whisky decanter, carafe, lead free decanter, decanters for port wine, duck wine decanters and so on. The elegant or antique looking decanters are intricately designed glass ones but are not very practical. The practical ones have a wide base that tapers sharply as it goes up to the fluted top. As such, the wine’s surface area is expanded greatly thus allowing a more effective breathing. Wider necked decanters should be used only if the wine needs to be consumed within a short span. Decanters - Before and after their use After removing the cork of a bottle and before its contents are decanted, clean around the top of the bottle immediately. It is important as a slightly moldy or old cork remains can affect the wine while it is poured to the decanter. Excessive oxidation of a wine can sometimes lead to an undesirable taste. So, after decantation, if you do not finish all the wine right away, spray a neutral gas in to a clear bottle, pour the remaining decanted wine and quickly re cork it to slow the oxidizing process.

Be it a festive gathering, a casual dinner with a loved one or a picnic on a lovely sunny day; you always love to serve that favorite wine of yours and gather appreciation. But what brings a slight pain in your heart is the dripping of that precious wine of yours after every serve, along side the length of the wine bottle onto the table linen or carpet. Will it be not awesome if something could catch and hold those messy drips in its tracks from sliding down the side of your bottle and save your bottle labels from staining and your table tops and linens from soiling? Something that would do the job effortlessly and at the same time adorn your wine bottle? Well the answer is here – a drip collar. A drip collar, also called drip rings, drip catchers or wine collars, is a wine accessory that fits snugly around the neck of your wine bottle and absorbs any drip of wine that that may run down the bottle after pouring. Drip collars also accessorize the wine bottles and add individual charm and color to them. These little yet highly useful items are a must if you wish to prevent stains on the surfaces like table cloths, counter tops, carpets, sofas and other items that could possibly be exposed to wine droplets. Drip collars are inexpensive enough to be disposed after a single use but if you are not willing to spend your hard earned money every time on a new drip collar, you can very well wash them and reuse to secure them from bacteria and germs. Read more... The history of drip collars This simple accessory that can prevent any unsightly mess at every pour has existed for over more then a hundred years, though the designs have varied since then. In the year 1872, W.R Miller was the first person who made a drip cup- a circular gutter that would fit around a wine bottle’s neck and catch the fluid of the container while pouring. He was provided a patent for the same. Designs and materials of drip collars Drip collars available today are made up of various materials and vary in their designs too. The basic shape of a drip collar is always circular. However, nowadays drip collars are being made in the shape of tuxedos for special occasions like marriage ceremonies. Some of the common types of drip collars are: • Plastic and silver drip collars - Today’s drip collars are typically plastic or silver rings with an interior lining of colored felt to absorb the wine drops when slipped over the neck of the bottle. The felt color is usually black or red. • Two Piece drip collars - One more design that is highly recognizable today is a drip collar with two main pieces and a snap lock that joins both the sections together. The lock has a small piece of magnet attached to it. You need to surround the bottle neck with the two pieces on both the sides and then join them together and create a seal with the snap lock. In order to absorb the drips however, here too a soft material like a felt is used that is inbuilt in the drip collar. • Plain felt drip collars - Other versions of drip collars include simply a solid stretchable round piece of felt that can accommodate the neck of the bottle. This type of drip collar is available mainly in the contemporary colors of back and red. • Synthetic drip collars - Some drip collars are also made up of synthetic materials that give them the resiliency to conform to all sizes of wine bottles. The elastic material used here is very strong and flexible. Whatever the type or design, the primary material that does the job in every kind of drip collar is the soft, absorbent felt lining that discreetly absorbs every drip of wine. The dual action of drip collars Whenever you use drip collars, they actually function in a two-fold manner. • The action of drip collars while pouring - At first, it helps to prevent drips of excess fluid while the contents of a bottle are being poured. • The action of drip collars while returning to the upright position - While the bottle is being returned to its upright position, chances of wine being dripped from the sides of the wine bottle are the same. Here too, the accessory stops drips equally and absorbs them in the same manner to avoid staining surfaces. This dual action of drip collars in both the instances helps to reduce the wasting of your wine and avoid messy counter and table tops from spillage. That means you can enjoy your wine without caring about any wine wastage and also wastage of time that you would have needed to get wine stains out of you linen table cloth if the wine drips would have come in contact to the surface. The aesthetic appeal of drip collars Besides being highly practical in use, drip collars also add a touch of class to every wine bottle. These little equipments not only prevent drips from wine bottles, they also provide a degree of sophistication to every wine service. A few drops of wine spilled on the table top may not be considered to be a great loss but certainly detract from the elegance of wine serving presentation. These ornamental wine collars let you serve your wine in style while saving your beautiful linen. Other uses of drip collars Drip collars can also be used in the kitchen for condiment bottles or any container that has an elongated neck and drips fluids while you use them. Their elastic nature makes them ideal to securely fit over the neck of all standard sized bottles. They make life in your kitchen a lot easier. They can be used while pouring broth, dressings and fruit juices and save you the time and effort of cleaning the kitchen counter top of their drips after every pour. Drip collars are easy to connect to a bottle and can be easily moved from one bottle neck to the next. Another option is purchasing several drip collars and attaching them to the bottle necks of the condiments and other liquids that you frequently use. Since they are quite affordable, they won’t hurt your pocket. Use and maintenance of drip collars While pouring your wine, be careful not to hold the drip collar or the bottle could slip out of your hand. As such, the bottle might break or the contents of the bottle may spill and spoil. For reusing a drip collar, simply rinse it gently with water and allow it to dry in air. It would be better if you lay them flat for drying. Advantages of drip collars • Functional, Economical and Reusable Drip collars - Your fine wines are made to sip, not drip.

While it is important to keep your wine chilled in a proper wine fridge or your main refrigerator, it is also important to serve the wine in a chilled state after opening the bottle. To do so, you need to visit your refrigerator again and again in order to get ice for every glass of wine. To save the strain, a nice bucket is necessary. It is a good way to keep your wine chilled while you enjoy it. When not pouring, the wine kept in there will not get warm while you are drinking, eating or enjoying the company of your guests. You can operate these ice buckets like a breeze; they are so easy to use. You simply need to place some ice in, put the wine bottle and pour a bit of water to give your bottle a nice cool ice bath and preserve its temperature as long as the celebration continues. Ice buckets are a wonderful accessory that ensures to add excitement to your ceremony by keeping the wine cool throughout the meal. They can be used to store ice for mixing in drinks or to submerge drink containers in the ice and chill them without dilution. Read more... Ice Buckets- what are they? Ice buckets are insulated containers to chill beverages or make ice readily available to add in beverages. They are mostly important when entertaining guests but are also great when you simply want to relax with your favorite wine on the pool side. In short, they are a type of countertop ice storage utensil that prevents ice from melting rapidly and keeps it in solid state for long. They are highly useful in bar areas, buffets, kitchens or while serving drinks in patios. The dual advantage of ice buckets Ice buckets work in a two fold manner. They have double insulated walls in which one side prevents ice from melting inside and the other side prevents condensation from forming on the outside of the bucket. This is important because while melted ice cannot serve the purpose of wine chilling, condensation is equally problematic as condensed drops tend to run down the sides of the exterior wall of the bucket and get to the surface in contact, thereby making it wet and damaging it, specially if it is a wooden table. Places where ice buckets can be used There are a number of places where ice buckets come in handy: • Ice buckets in home bars and home parties- You can use ice buckets in your home bar for yourself and your family. You can also place them on countertops at parties. You can simply fill your ice bucket and carry it with you to the patio or set it in a serving area so that you do not need to retrieve ice from your refrigerator every time your guest asks for a refreshing drink. • Ice buckets at dinner tables- Another use is keeping your wine chilled at your dinner table, be it your home or a restaurant. • Ice buckets in hotel rooms- In modern hotel rooms, ice buckets are readily available for guests to carry ice back from an ice vending machine. • Ice buckets during summer months- Keeping an ice bucket on the countertop in the summer months keep the kids from opening the freezer time and again or running a noisy ice dispenser while you are relaxing. •  Ice buckets in camping or in a bath- Ice buckets are great to carry and use in camping. You can also place them next to your bathing tub for a refreshing drink every time you bath that gives your bathing a luxurious experience. Designs of ice buckets Ice bucket is a necessity for most social occasions like dinner parties, a christening, or a wedding. There are a massive number of designs to choose from to suit your taste and need. From basic models to elegant designs, there is a bucket for every décor, purpose and occasion. Some of the most common models are: • The typical model of ice buckets- A typical ice bucket is a model that has a hat-style lid which slips into the lip of the ice bucket. The lid is lifted or lowered every time the ice is needed and this is done by using a central knob. The bucket handle or the knob handle might be located centrally like a basket style swivel that can drop to a side when not in use or might be two in number and located on either side of the bucket body. • Stainless steel model ice buckets- This model is a highly polished one and adds a tasteful flair to any party. It has a sophisticated and modern look in it. • Crystal model ice buckets- For the most appealing elegance, cut crystal model ice buckets are preferred. They are so beautiful that they look spell binding sitting out, even when not in use. These Ice buckets are generally used at weddings and showers. They are also suited for professional purposes like conventions, employee outings, and organizational gatherings. • Leather cover model ice buckets- As the name suggest, here the exterior wall of the ice bucket has a sheet of leather cover to keep the ice cold for a longer duration. • Personalized model ice buckets- Here, the bearer of the ice bucket can get a monogram or family name engraved on the bucket for a more personalized feel. • Talking model ice buckets- Talking ice buckets are fun at a casual party. They repeat slogans and songs whenever the bucket is opened. • Illuminated model ice buckets- This model has multi-colored inbuilt lights and often come with a remote control for a funky addition to a party. • Other models of ice buckets- There are many other models in different fun styles, whimsical designs and bright colors. These are unconventional types and are preferred by people who like adding a unique touch to their wine accessories. The examples are acrylic ice buckets that look like blocks of ice or ice buckets looking like a washtub for a cute and rustic feel. The common thing that is used with all the models is ice tongs. These are mini tongs used to pick ice from the bucket for the purpose of sanitation. In some cases, the tongs are sold with the buckets but usually they need to be bought separately. Materials used in ice buckets Ice buckets are generally made with materials that are good for insulation. The most common types of ice buckets depending on the material used in them are: • Steel ice buckets- Ice buckets made of steel, usually stainless steel have a lustrous finish in them and look great on parties and events. The double wall construction used in such buckets keep ice frozen longer, thereby keeping it nice and cold. They are also quite durable and expertly combine practicality, and alluring looks. These buckets are usually large enough to hold a considerable amount of ice. • Lead ice buckets- Lead crystal buckets can catch the light beautifully and therefore create a shimmering display. They add a touch of sophistication, wherever they are placed. • Plastic ice buckets- Plastic ice buckets are the most common, inexpensive and durable ones .They are available in a variety of vibrant colors to add a splash of fun to every occasion. • Aluminum ice buckets- Aluminum ice buckets are very strong and lightweight at the same time. They can resist any harsh treatment and they have a silver color to compliment every type of décor. The temperature conductivity of aluminum is significantly lower than other metals thus aluminum ice buckets preserve the bottle's coolness for longer. They are highly durable. • Electric ice buckets- If you are a gadget freak and a wine buff, these types of ice buckets are a must for you. For operating electric ice buckets, you need to fill ice in them and then pour water to the marked line. Then set the timer and plug in. The desired cooling temperature can be obtained in minutes. Also, since these types of ice buckets cool the bottles from top, any sediment if present in the bottles is forced to settle down to the bottom. • Glass ice buckets- These ice buckets are impressive to look at and are quite heavy in weight. The transparency allows the bottle to display its wine content and label while it is being cooled. • Wooden ice buckets- These ice buckets provide a rustic feel to the atmosphere. They are usually crafted of grained wood and include a stainless steel lid. Different shapes of ice buckets To serve different purposes, ice buckets come in different shapes. While generally they are smaller in shape with a small diameter, some ice buckets come in the shape of tubs. These may again come with lids or may not be lidded and are shaped to hold large quantities of ice and can cool many beverage bottles at the same time. They are used for the purpose of serving a larger number of guests in an event. When buying ice buckets When you think of buying an ice bucket, your main concerns are function, style and price. There are a plenty of options to choose from purely functional, to whimsical, to high style. The price of course differs accordingly. For a highly functional ice bucket go for one with a lid to help ice last longer. Secondly, look for a high level of insulation. Insulated Ice Buckets do not sweat and provide a long lasting method for storing ice. The models that look like large thermoses and act accordingly can suit you purpose as they have double walls to provide proper insulation. For a more stylish option, go for designer ones but you may have to compromise on the efficiency.

However, if thought deeply, you will find that all people have something in common though everyone strives to be different.

It really doesn't matter if he or she has more than one ice bucket because different designs of ice buckets can be used to compliment different barware or table settings. Ice buckets –How they help The components of a wine’s aroma and flavor are to a great extent, temperature dependent. For example, the alcohol in a wine is a highly volatile material and is very temperature sensitive. At a very high temperature, a wine can exhibit too much alcohol which obscures the other aromas present and at a very low temperature, all the aromas hide and are hard to distinguish. Therefore, an ideal, medium temperature is required where the components can be balanced rather than making any of them dominant or obtrusive. One of the ways to acquire the right temperature for a bottle of wine is an ice bucket. An ice bucket with some water and plenty of ice is close to 32° F (0° C). This temperature helps the wine to be always served at the correct temperature, thereby releasing the true potential of every bottle which enables you to gain the maximum enjoyment of your wine.

But your guests would probably like to have a more complicated and accurate mixture of the cocktail instead of some gin and tonic. And to give them that very accurate mixture, you need a perfect bartending tool. It is a common misconception that creating a cocktail in the absolutely right proportion can be done only by professional bartenders. But cheers to the two magical tools of wine trade-shakers and jiggers; now the craft of cocktail creation is open to everybody. Anyone who is fantasized with cocktails can mix them at home, in the perfect proportion. Sometimes people become an expert on their own, mixing their signature cocktails and thus become adept at various cocktail recipes; all with the help of these two simple equipments- shakers and jiggers. Read more... Cocktail Shakers Cocktail Shakers are the most essential tool for making cocktails. They are the most used pieces of the barware set no matter what you are shaking or mixing- Aviation or Martini or Manhattan. Cocktail Shakers are useful for mixing usually alcoholic drinks that have ingredients hard to mix smoothly, like- liqueurs, creams and fruit juices. In order to use a shaker, simply put the desired ingredients and then ice cubes in the cocktail shaker. Then shake it vigorously depending on the mixing ability and temperature of the mixture. A nice shake for 5 to 10 seconds would be enough. Cocktail shakers also cool the drinks just before serving and make them taste concentrated and crispy. An art in itself, cocktail shaking needs some practice if you wish to device your own cocktail shaking style and enthrall your guests. Cocktail shakers come in handy in both commercial and home bars for mixing drinks and every bar should have at least one standard sized cocktail shaker for entertaining, and possibly more for making a large amount of mixed drinks. Types of shakers There are three main types of cocktail shakers. These types vary in terms of a built-in strainer. • Traditional shakers or Cobbler shakers- This type of shaker is not very suited for professional use and is mostly found in homes. It is comprised of three pieces: a metal base, a tight fitting cap or bar tin in the top and a built in strainer. The top fits over the strainer. Sometimes the cap is used to measure liquids. This shaker is very easy to use. The cap is removed, the ingredients are poured in along with some ice, the shaker is capped and shaken briskly, and the drink is poured through the strainer. Since this type of shaker is a very simple accessory, the parts are easy to fit and no further tools are required for the shaking. But it is often difficult to open it once it has cooled from the ice put in it. Another disadvantage of this kind of shakers is that since they get very cold on the outside too, they are almost painful to touch. Also due to the small in built strainer, the ice can block the way of the pour, thereby making it the slowest to pour of all shakers, even if you almost invert the shaker. For busy, high traffic bars, cobbler shakers are very cumbersome, so the least preferred. • Boston shakers- A Boston shaker has two parts: a metal tumbler or base and a thick, often tempered nestling glass or plastic mixing cup, but without a built-in strainer. The operation is similar to the cobbler shaker but here one needs to tap in the nestling cup into the base after pouring the ingredients and ice to create a vacuum seal that keeps the two parts together. The drink is then shaken briskly until the metal base is cold, the shaker is tapped again to break the seal, this time using the wrist and hitting against the edge of the metal tumbler where it comes in to contact with the mixing glass, to reopen it. This can be a difficult task at first, and one may think the two parts are permanently sealed together. However, with a bit of practice the process soon becomes easy. The drink is then poured through a separate bar strainer into a glass. Separate bar strainers are vital when using Boston shakers, since they ensure that drinks become smooth and uniform, especially if crushed ice is used. This kind of shaker serves a dual purpose because of its two components- the mixing glass and the metal tin. The glass can be used alone for stirring or muddling drinks over ice and the two pieces can also be used together for shaking ingredients with the tin fitting over the glass. The Boston Shaker is generally used by professional bartenders to pour the mixed drink into a cocktail glass without making a mess. These shakers are easier to clean too. With a Boston shaker it is much faster and easier to make drinks, especially if one wants to create several drinks, one after another. • French shakers/Pitcher shakers- This is the final type of shaker and is the least popular one. This can be called to be a cobbler shaker minus the built-in strainer since it is of a large mixing metal pitcher shaped tumbler and a metal cap and has not strainer. A separate strainer is always required for this type of shaker, to keep the ice out of the drink when pouring. The advantage of the pitcher shaker is that cocktails may be prepared in a large amount at a time and the pitcher may be left on a table for guests to serve themselves. The disadvantage is that one may find it hard to open unless one has a good grip. Whatever be the choice amongst the above three types of shakers, it is important to make sure it is big enough to allow for plenty of ice to be packed in, and for plenty of space to shake the ice around. Materials used in shakers The most common construction material for cocktail shakers is metal, since metal container colds well and a cocktail shaker is primarily intended to chill a drink while mixing it. Other materials such as glass and plastic are sometimes used. Designs and shapes of shakers Cocktail shakers sometimes come in ornamented or etched designs and are often sold in a set with other bar tools which match. They also come in a variety of sizes, from personal models for mixing single drinks to larger bar sizes for handling bigger volumes. Cocktail shakers are also available in novel shapes. Many fun and whimsical shapes like penguin shakers, fire hydrants, and bullet shapes are available in the market now. There are also cocktail shakers that can play music, come with built in stirrers and are adorned with ornate decorations. When buying cocktail shakers While purchasing a cocktail shaker, one should consider how many drinks he or she needs to mix at a time. For people who only mix drinks rarely and casually, a small traditional shaker is probably a good choice, since it is easy to use. For larger mixing volume, better go for a Boston shaker. Besides the type, the quality of material is also an important consideration. Stainless metal tumblers are durable and highly effective. If you wish to save money but do not want to compromise on efficiency, cheaper nickel-plated tumblers can be advocated for. Cocktail Jiggers The entire balance of a complex drink can be completely messed up if you pour excess or insufficient alcohol to it. The ratio of drink ingredients and accuracy are the most critical things in drink recipes, and to make a perfect blend with the perfect amount of mixture in the cocktail, one needs a bartending device that can accurately and precisely measure the various ingredients in the drink. This essential and aesthetic piece of a bar set that helps ensure precise measuring of liquids and creating consistent cocktails is called a jigger. A jigger or a measuring cup is measuring device made of metal or glass that has two cones on each end. It is an indispensable device typically used by bartenders to decanFgiftt accurately 43ml (circa 1.4 ounces) of a beverage into a drink recipe. The larger cone can hold around 1 -1/2 ounces of liquid ingredients and is called a jigger, while it's smaller counterpart can hold 1 or 3/4 ounce (30ml approx.) and is referred to as pony. This smaller part is used to measure out a "pony shot,"- a less potent variation on the standard recipe. But jiggers are available in other sizes as well and may not necessarily measure wet ingredients or fluids. A jigger is standard equipment in most bar sets, although individual gradations and capacities may vary. For example, a British jigger may measure out 50ml and 25ml of liquid instead of the Imperial ounce. Sizes and shapes of jiggers Some jiggers come in a larger size than the standard shot glass standard, either to measure out non-alcoholic mixers or "doubled" amounts of alcohol in a special order. A jigger sometimes has an attached metal rod between the two cups for easier pouring into a blender or martini shaker. Some jigger sets also have gradations marked on the side of the cups instead of standard measurements. A conventional style of bar jigger is one made of stainless steel, with the two opposing cones on either side of the jigger featuring an hourglass shape on the end of a rod. Types of jiggers For measuring ingredients, jiggers primarily come in two types based on the sides showing the quantity and unit to use as measurements. • English unit jiggers- Such jiggers come in a variety of sizes based on the following measurements: • ½ oz - 1 oz • ¾ oz – 1¼ oz • ¾ oz – 1½ oz • 1 oz – 1½ oz • 1 oz – 2 oz • ½ oz – ¾ oz • 1½ oz – 2 oz • Metric unit jiggers- The metric unit jigger sizes that come are: • 20 ml – 40 ml • 25 ml – 50 ml • 30 ml – 60 ml Besides the two above said types, there are other varieties available: • British jiggers- On the larger side, a typical British jigger measures 50ml while on the smaller side it shows 25ml of measurement. • Australian jiggers- Australian jiggers usually measure 30ml and 15ml respectively. • Scandinavian and European jiggers- Scandinavian and European jiggers use the metric system of measurement and the measurements are 20ml and 40ml respectively. The purpose of jiggers When we talk about only 3 to 4 ounces measurement of ingredients to mix in drinks, even the smallest difference in measures can make a very big difference in the resultant taste of the cocktail. To avoid this, a jigger is essential. A jigger should be always used by beginner bartenders, particularly because here, the skills and experience of the one mixing the drinks are questionable. The main purpose of a jigger is to measure the precise amount of alcohol into the cocktail shaker. This precise measurement is important in order to get a well-balanced drink. An excellent jigger can help you make cocktails in a jiffy. It is often thought that a professional bartender doesn't need to use a jigger. But it is mostly the professional bartenders who use a jigger, because they know just how important it is to properly measure the ingredients when making a properly balanced cocktail. A jigger proves to be a source of pride for a skilled bartender, which can make him or her capable of free-pouring drinks with accuracy. When buying jiggers When purchasing a jigger, the following points are needed to be kept in mind: • Buy jiggers with good lips - Firstly, always go for a jigger with a well formed lip that can pour a clean stream of cocktail into the glass. • Jiggers with handles are a good option – And secondly, you can opt for a jigger with a handle attached to it. This handle can keep your fingers from getting sticky if you accidentally slop some cordials on the side of the jigger.
