Cocktail FAQs
What does adding salt to a cocktail do?
Adding a tiny bit of salt or a few drops of 20/80 saline solution to a cocktail will mute bitterness and bring out subtile flavor notes—mainly sweet & sour flavors. Essentially, we want to be using salt in cocktails for the same reasons we use it in cooking.

What is a Boston shaker?
A Boston shaker is a two-piece cocktail shaker that creates its own create a vacuum-tight seal once closed, reducing the likelihood of leakage while shaking. Boston shakers have one larger tin, usually 28-oz capacity, and a smaller glass or metal tin with a 16–18 oz capacity. They tend to be the preferred style of shaker for professional bartenders, and we like Boston-style shakers because of their large internal capacity, helping to efficiently mix, chill, and aerate your cocktails.
Why use fresh fruit syrup for cocktails?
Using a homemade, fresh fruit syrup for your cocktails allows you full control over flavor and sweetness; you can adjust the intensity level by using different amounts of sugar:water:berries. It also gives you a better berry flavor intensity by using the sweetness of the berries in place of some of the sugar but still yielding the same sweetness level.
