MANHATTAN MEZCLAR Shaker 750 ml – A Timeless Bartending Classic
Not every bar tool needs bold colours or decorative details. Sometimes simplicity is exactly what makes a design appealing. The MANHATTAN Shaker [MEZCLAR] 750 ml follows the traditional Cobbler shaker style, with a clean metallic finish and a practical three-piece construction.
It is a straightforward choice for anyone who appreciates classic bartending equipment, whether learning to make cocktails at home or working behind a professional bar.
What Is a Cobbler Shaker and How Does It Work?
The MANHATTAN MEZCLAR is a three-piece Cobbler shaker consisting of a main mixing tin, an integrated strainer and a top cap.
Add your ingredients and ice, secure the components and shake to chill and combine the drink. The built-in strainer allows you to pour the cocktail without using a separate Hawthorne strainer.
The cap closes the shaker during use. It should not be treated as a calibrated jigger unless verified volume markings are present.
750 ml Capacity – More Room for Ingredients and Ice
With a nominal capacity of 750 ml, this shaker offers more space than a 500 ml model. It can be useful for recipes with several ingredients or when preparing larger quantities.
The nominal capacity is not the recommended filling volume. Always leave enough room for ice and ingredient movement. The number of servings depends on the recipe, the amount of ice and the working volume.
Cobbler vs Boston Shaker – Which Should You Choose?
Cobbler shaker: features three components and a built-in strainer. It is a practical option for users who prefer a traditional shaker with integrated filtration.
Boston shaker: uses two mixing vessels and normally requires a separate strainer. Many professional bartenders appreciate its flexibility and working method.
The MANHATTAN MEZCLAR is a suitable choice if you prefer the classic Cobbler construction and want to strain cocktails without a separate Hawthorne strainer.
Two Classic Cocktails to Prepare
Whiskey Sour: combine 60 ml whiskey, 30 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice and 20 ml sugar syrup. Shake with ice and strain into a glass. Optionally, add pasteurised egg white or a cocktail foaming alternative.
Cosmopolitan: combine 40 ml vodka, 20 ml orange liqueur, 20 ml cranberry juice and 10 ml fresh lime juice. Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
