Stainless Steel Boston Shaker

If you’re looking for the ultimate workhorse of a cocktail shaker, this is it. This is the shaker that launched A Bar Above's barware brand in 2016 and has 3,200+ reviews and a 5-star rating on Amazon. It's the perfect combination of a water-tight seal while being easy to open and perfectly weighted. Meet your next - and last - Boston shaker.

• Made from high-quality, food-grade stainless steel 304. That means no weird rust spots appearing – the first or thousandth time through the dishwasher.
• Circle-welded: Look closely at the bottom of the shaker. See that weld? We had our factory weld it all the way around (not just in three tiny spots like the other guys). That weight isn't going to fall off, period.
• Perfectly paired & cross-compatible: All of our shaker cups are compatible with each other. That means they nest perfectly when in storage and seal perfectly in service.
• 10,000+ cocktails: We've seen one of these bad boys make it past 10,000 drinks. Yours will ,too!

Look closely at the pictures: The weighted shaker has weights welded to the bottom of both shaker cups, but the weighted/unweighted only has the weight on one side.

After years behind the bar, Chris found that the combination of one weighted and one unweighted tin is the perfect balance for pros who make drinks like egg white cocktails – the weighted cup provides a bit of rigidity while the unweighted cup is more flexible and molds to its partner, providing a perfect seal. If you already have experience with a weighted set of shakers, then you're going to love this one and its tight seal even more.

The double-weighted shaker is a common staple in the industry, so it's what most people are used to. The rigidity of both cups makes it a bit easier to open after shaking, so if you are just now learning the difference, go with this one!
