MATCH PEWTER Cocktail Shaker

No, this piece is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the finish and integrity of the pewter, we recommend hand washing it with mild soap and warm water, then drying it immediately with a soft cloth.

The built-in strainer is designed for standard shaken cocktails like martinis or gimlets. While it effectively holds back ice and larger fruit chunks, you may want to use a fine-mesh strainer separately if you are muddling small herbs or berries that you prefer to keep out of the final pour.

Yes, pewter is a living material. With regular use, it will naturally develop a soft, muted patina that adds character to the piece. If you prefer a brighter look, you can occasionally polish it with a high-quality pewter cleaner.

The three-piece cobbler design fits snugly, but like all metal shakers, it relies on a tight seal created by the temperature drop during shaking. Ensure the cap and strainer top are firmly seated before you begin to shake to prevent any drips.

The 20-ounce capacity is quite generous, allowing you to comfortably mix two standard-sized cocktails at once. It is an excellent size for entertaining, as it reduces the number of times you need to reset between rounds.
