Mise en place for Cocktails

Starts with a kitchen towel

"MEEZ-on-plahs" a culinary term in which ingredients are prepared and organized before cooking - Merriam-Webster

The Setup

  • kitchen towel folded in half and placed on the counter no matter how neat yo are, you're going to splash and spill bits of ingredients. its part of the performance of making a cocktail. embrace the messy indulgence
  • boston shaker set open on top of the towel. every other shaker is inferror. cobbler clunky. pint glass with tin doesnt get a tight seal for the dry shake. trust me. learn to love your tin on tin boston shaker.
  • reamer. its wood. its sexy. its perfect for squeezing citrus fresh into each cocktail
  • jigger
  • hawthorne strainer
  • fine mesh strainer
  • veggetable peeler for creating twists of citrus
