This
dual-part bar tool, the first being a stainless steel tumbler, followed by a
glass, is most commonly used by bartenders to mix drinks. The steel part fits snugly over the glass,
creating a seal. Then vigorous shaking

Bar/Mixing Spoon
A barspoon is generally the same measurement as a teaspoon,
aiding in the measurement of ingredients.
One also uses this tool to stir drinks that require such an
activity. Most barspoons
have grooved necks and handles, which when properly used, twist and turn as
stirring occurs.
Juicer
All good
cocktails contain fresh squeezed juices.
At least your lime and lemon juice should be freshly squeezed, if
anything. To use this tool, one would
cut a fruit in half, lay the meat side down into the pointed portion, and push
down, releasing any juices into the cupped portion of the juicer.
Muddler
A muddler is used to smash ingredients together, marrying
flavors of more than one fruit, spice, juice, or spirit. Popular muddled drinks
included The Mojito and Old-Fashioned.

How to:
Chill a martini glass:
Simply take
your martini glass, and put it inside your refrigerator. If a fridge is not available, you can place a
scoop of ice in your glass, add water, and let sit for 30 or so seconds. Then remove the ice and water, shake out any
excess liquid, and you have a perfectly chilled martini glass.
Make your own simple syrup:
Simple
syrup is as easy as it sounds! It is
equal parts water to sugar. Add your
desired amount to a saucepan in equal parts (1 cup sugar, 1 cup water,
etc.). Bring ingredients to a simmer and
keep stirring until sugar dissolves.
Remove from saucepan and chill in refrigerator. Remove a few hours later and there you have
it! A must addition to cocktails! (For added creativity, add your favorite
spice to the simmering water – mint, cloves, basil, rosemary,etc. to make a nice spice-infused simple syrup).
