This stout 8oz cocktail shaker is primarily used to cap a 16oz shaker tin. It measures 3.25″ tall. All our wire strainers fit just fine in this item.Deciding on the right cheater tin is a matter of taste and practicality, and you may become comfortable with any type you choose. If your main concern is spill-free ease of operation, a three-piece shaker may be your solution. For working mixologists who might be looking for rapid application, a 2-piece system of capping a small shaker or mixing glass is often used, as is simply using a single tin for stirring and an ice strainer while pouring. Two piece shakers are often sold as a set, and for many appearance is a large consideration. If you’re looking for a little flair and no slip grip, you may want to see a Vinylworks shaker. Deciding stainless steel or plastic is something to consider when purchasing limits and showmanship for both professionals and home bar enthusiasts are important.
