  • Julep strainerA spoon-shaped strainer that sits inside a mixing glass for stirred drinks.
  • JiggerA double-sided measure so every drink comes out the same. Look for one marked in ½ and ¼ oz.
  • Large ice cube moldMakes big, slow-melting cubes that keep spirit-forward drinks cold without watering them down.
  • Y-peelerCuts wide citrus peels for twists and expressed oils with no bitter pith.
