• A sour made for sippin’

    The shaking of the cocktail can make or break the finish of a good drink. The most common shakers used in bars are called ‘Boston Shaker’. These take some practice to perfect and are definitely not for beginners. Most at-home shakers are called ‘Cobbler Shakers’. These are relatively easy to use and to find in stores. However, you can also opt for using any sealable cylindrical container at home and save your money for another bottle of Gentleman Jack.
