Frequently Asked Questions

What is a julep strainer and what is its purpose?

A julep strainer is a bar tool used for straining spirit-forward cocktails. It's a perforated spoon-shaped strainer that fits inside a mixing glass or shaker tin. Its purpose is to strain out solid ingredients and ice when pouring the cocktail into a serving glass, ensuring a smooth and well-filtered drink.

How is a julep strainer different from other types of strainers?

A julep strainer, like Hawthorne and fine strainers, is used for cocktail straining. The key difference is in their design and purpose. Julep strainers are perforated spoons for spirit-forward cocktails; Hawthorne strainers feature a coiled spring for shaken cocktails, while fine mesh strainers have a tight mesh screen for finer filtration.

Can a julep strainer be used for both shaken and stirred cocktails? 

Technically, yes, it can, However, it's designed with perforated holes that can allow more pulp, fruit, or herb through in a shaken cocktail. Also, some julep strainers won't fit a shaker tin. Our julep strainer, however, is designed to fit both our mixing glass and Boston shaker.

How does a julep strainer fit onto a mixing glass or shaker tin?

A julep strainer is positioned inside a mixing glass or shaker tin by resting its concave side against the rim. The handle of the strainer extends diagonally across the opening, allowing the liquid to be poured while the strainer holds back the solid ingredients and ice, ensuring a clean and controlled pour.

Can a julep strainer effectively strain small ice chips or fruit pulp?

Yes, it can strain out ice chips but may allow some fruit pulp through its perforated holes. That is why it is typically used with stirred, spirit-forward cocktails that do not contain muddled ingredients or fruit juice.

Are julep strainers dishwasher safe?

Ours are! Like our other stainless steel bar tools, you can throw them in the dishwasher after use to make clean up much easier.

Can a julep strainer be used for straining other liquids besides cocktails? 

They can, but because they have more perforated holes than other strainers, they may let solid ingredients into your drink. A julep strainer is designed for straining spirit-forward, stirred cocktails that do not contain muddled ingredients, fruit juice, etc. If you want to strain tea or juice, we recommend a Hawthorne and/or fine strainer.

What occasion can I use this bar strainer for?

This strainer is meant for everyday use and is great for making drinks for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, dinner parties, and date nights.

I’ve been looking forward a quality Julep strainer and finally found it at A Bar Above.
I am just a home bartender/cocktail maker but I’m sure even the most seasoned professional would be pleased with this product.
Can’t wait for the need to order more of their products.

It's what the pro's use

If you are making martinis or Manhattans, and using a class one pint mixing set that bars use, this is your tool to strain dinks for Straight up martini's and Manhattan's.

Perfect size

Solid well balanced and easy to clean. This is smaller than it looks in pictures. Fits inside a regular rocks or old fashioned glass. Locks in place to build a drink like a Sazerac by straining the liquid from the ice filled cup. Very happy with purchase

Stirred not shaken 008

What can I say it looks good and it does the job at a very good price. I'd say well done. To one imbiber to the next I do recommend if you're looking to making cocktails in a mixing glass.

Too small

Not what I expected for straining mixed drinks

simple product, made well

I like the teardrop style hole on the handle here. If you have your bar tools hanging, those stylized cutouts don't do you any favors.

Maybe you don't need this

This works as expected, however I just find that I never reach for this one first. I find my hawthorne strainer to be sufficient for 99% of my straining duties. Get a hawthorne strainer first, then see if you really need this. Unless you're a bartender, I don't think you will.

Best ever!

I bought just what I thought I needed; shaker, jigger, and strainer. All exceeded my high expectations. Top quality, and will last a lifetime. John

Thanks so much for your review, John! I am so glad you're satisfied with the barware you purchased! Cheers.

Love it

Nice addition to my bar setup. The color is superb and stands out nicely. It's definitely a bit weighted, but I prefer that over an aluminum feel. Makes a great addition to any bar!
