How To Properly Shake A Boston Cocktail?
1. When shaking a Boston cocktail, it's important to have a good grip on the shaker to avoid any messy spills. For less experienced mixologists, using two hands with one hand holding each end of the shaker is recommended.
2. To properly mix the drink, shake vigorously in a horizontal motion rather than vertically. Shake for about 10-15 seconds or until you feel condensation forming on the outside of the shaker.

How To Use A Jigger Correctly?
1. Hold the jigger between your thumb and forefinger, or between your first and second fingers.
2. Keep the jigger steady and stable.
3. Fill the jigger to the brim with your desired liquid.
4. Efficiently pour the contents into a shaker or mixing glass.

How To Use A Bar Spoon Correctly?
1. To use a bar spoon correctly, hold it like a pencil, between your thumb, middle, and ring fingers.
2. It is best to hold it above your first knuckle rather than gripping it with your fingertips.
3. Using a circular motion, move the spoon along the edge of the glass. Remember to stir from your wrist rather than your entire arm.

How To Use the Hawthorne Strainer Correctly?
1. Hold the strainer by the handle and place it over the glass or cocktail shaker with the coil facing downwards.
2. Press the strainer firmly against the rim of the glass or shaker to prevent any liquid from spilling out.
3. Pour the mixture into the glass or shaker while holding the strainer in place to catch any solids or ice.
4. Lift the strainer up and tilt the glass or shaker to ensure all of the liquid has been strained out.
Tips for Removing a Stuck Boston Shaker Tin
1. Use the hot towel technique to separate the body from the lid
2. Use a bottle opener or a spoon to create leverage, insert it in the small gap between the cap and the body, and twist it to apply force to the cap while pulling.
3. Tap the shaker with a bit of force to break the vacuum seal. Hold the tin shaker with one hand, and tap the top tin, so it leans on the other side using the heel of the other hand.
