Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Hawthorne cocktail strainer for shaken drinks?
A Hawthorne-style strainer is generally used to hold back ice and larger solids while pouring shaken drinks. The OXO SteeL Cocktail Strainer is designed to fit cocktail shakers or glasses and includes a soft, non-slip finger rest for controlled straining.
What cocktail strainer works with most shakers and helps prevent drips?

What is the difference between a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh cocktail strainer?
