Interesting cocktail. Also, nice lavalamp!

OXO also makes a jigger and I'm sad I lost mine! First off a cheap jigger with a hard edge can cut you when you clean it! It's happened to me! This is the only jigger I've found with incremental measurements inside of the two measuring areas as well. Not needed when you have all three sized jiggers, but here's a way to only own one. And finally the luxurious part of it... a rubbered center makes it nice to hold! Probably wouldn't rave about it but I got it for free and I feel like I've lost a friend I've got to pay quite a bit of money to get back.

I love mine! It's about the only thing I use to measure cocktails. Much faster and easier than a little measuring cup. I hardly ever see them but you can order them on Amazon. I don't know why Target stopped carrying them.

The Cocktail Kingdom ones also have graduated levels inside the jiggers which is kinda cool. Fantastic video :)

This guy is so good.

The OXO shot cup lacks a 3/4 oz line. It's a sad flaw on a nice tool.

The problem with jiggers for home bartending, is that you always spill a few drops when filling them all the way up and when turning them around. (The home bartender can be assumed to be slightly drunk) If you have a large measurement cup you don't have to get alcohol all over your counter.

BenRangel In most cases, it is best to measure over the mixing container.

The jigger I just bought has the 2 oz line below the rim of the jigger......so less or none will be spilled making the 3rd or 4th drink. :)

Ok, to limit spilling, use a Japanese jigger. They’re rounded to the top, it helps with containing the measurements when you fill it right up. Another thing I do, is pour a little less than full, and then pout a little from the bottle straight into the shaker.

I would be interested to know what bitters and other "syrups" are behind Robert.

Thank you very much

Sometimes I look at recipes of cocktails and another drinks, I see an ingredient of 8 oz or 10 oz ice. How’s it possible to measure ice as oz? Thank you for your video. I totally agree that bartender needs to use jigger if they really care about drink

It's really up to you how much ice you use. If the recipe calls for that much ice, it is usually because the drink is served with ice and needs to fill a certain amount of the glass to make a full drink.

can i ask why did you not fine strain after shaking with ice and in to a glass with no ice??

Some people like the ice crystals in the drink, just personal preference.

is there a cocktail set you recommend for home use, not cheap quality

Hey im developing a piece of bartending equipment that has potential to become industry standard. Other than patenting which is obvious, what advice can you give me. The idea really is ingenious. Some old school advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you want it to be used in the industry, make sure it can be easily used in dim light, and quickly. Easy to clean is also important. And use metal and glass if you can because everybody likes how it looks. Sometimes the right kind of plastic is appropriate as with those Chef'n juicers. People think they are flimsy but they are actually very tough. They bend a little because they are designed that way.

I think about Tipsy as little as possible. He gets views with cute college girls not mixology.

Problem with jiggers is not filling them to the fill line - leaving space to avoid spillage or just not knowing where the fill line is. With those conical ones coming a 1mm in under the fill line is being out by an 1/8th which makes it no more accurate than a free pour

Hello Sir. Could you do me a favour for a Biig Star. Maybe you heard of her. Aisling Bea. If not check her out she is very funny. Could you mix up this cocktail and mak it zing just for he by this Christmas. Vodka. Irish Mist or Velvet. Rum Mango juice. Ice. Nutmeg. I call it the Fishy Rat. as she is a Pieces born in the year of the Rat. Ou might have a better knowledge if any of these ingredients might be better served with something else. But stick with the first letter of the ingredients I've listed as they spell Vermin. Hope I'm not imposing on your time but you might enjoy the challenge of of putting a smile in the cake hole she has for a mouth. So if you decide to do it Thank you ever so much and hope you have a great Christmas.

Martini Rosso is not a Vermouth... Better, no more.

If you pull out the jiggers at a fast paced bar for a Manhattan or martini you’re just a pretentious dork.
