TRUE Mixologist Bar Set

No, this set is specifically designed for stirred cocktails like an Old Fashioned or a Manhattan. It includes a mixing glass and a julep strainer, which are intended for gentle stirring rather than the vigorous shaking required for citrus-based drinks.

No, the components are not dishwasher safe. To preserve the finish of the stainless steel, the integrity of the wooden muddler, and the clarity of the glass, we recommend hand washing all pieces with mild soap and warm water.

A julep strainer is designed to fit perfectly inside the mixing glass, allowing you to strain stirred cocktails while keeping ice and large ingredients contained. It is the traditional choice for stirred drinks, offering a cleaner pour than the spring-loaded Hawthorne strainers used for shaken cocktails.

Yes, because it is made of wood, you should avoid soaking it in water, which can cause the material to warp or crack. After use, simply hand wash it, wipe it dry immediately, and consider applying a food-safe mineral oil occasionally to keep the wood conditioned.

The 17-ounce capacity is ideal for preparing one to two standard cocktails at a time. While you could technically fit more, leaving enough room for ice and proper stirring is essential for achieving the correct dilution and temperature.
