Gold Cocktail Shaker Set (4-Piece)

This is a great question, but it depends on your existing bar! If you don't have any equipment yet, you may want to get a larger started kit and then add specific pieces you're missing as your mixology skills become more advanced.

A basic set gives you a few pieces to get started, which is great if you're not sure what tools you need or if you just want to replace key equipment. However, you may not get everything you want with a basic set; a more comprehensive set allows you to make more cocktails right away.

Sure! There are a ton of bar sets out there, catering to a variety of cocktails. Our 4-piece set will get you started with shaken cocktails, while our 10-piece stirred cocktail set has everything you need to make stirred drinks like Old Fashioneds and Manhattans. Our 14-piece set has equipment for both.

When deciding between different sets, think about the drinks you want to make and the tools you already have. Look at some cocktail recipes and see what equipment they call for, and then pick a set that will help you make the cocktails you're more drawn to.

Different cocktails call for different glassware! If you're not sure what to start, you can't go wrong with good sets of rocks glasses, coupes or Nick & Nora glasses, and highball glasses.

This is really a personal choice and depends on what you have already in your bar. Buying bar sets can save you money compared to buying individual pieces, so we recommend starting with a set and then filling in the gaps buy adding bar tools and accessories you may be missing.

You certainly can! You can buy tools as you go, or you can begin with our 4-piece bar set (which will save you money vs. buying the pieces individually) and then continue to add equipment over time.

This depends on what equipment you already have and what drinks you want to make. If you already have a shaker and jigger, for example, you can add equipment as you go. Or you can buy a more complete bar set and add smaller accessories as you progress your skills.
