Know before you buy
Because this shaker is made of pure copper, it will naturally develop a patina over time, which many owners prefer for its vintage look. If you prefer to keep it shiny, you can use a copper polish periodically. Always hand wash and dry immediately to prevent water spots.
No, this shaker is not dishwasher safe. The harsh detergents and high heat of a dishwasher can damage the copper finish and compromise the integrity of the metal. Hand washing is required to maintain its heirloom quality.
This model features a built-in strainer, allowing you to pour your cocktails directly from the shaker without needing an additional tool. It is designed for a smooth, mess-free pour.
Copper is an excellent thermal conductor, which means it chills your ingredients much faster than glass or stainless steel. It also helps the shaker stay cold to the touch while you are mixing, ensuring your cocktails remain at the ideal temperature.
The Alpujarra shaker is engineered with a precision leak-proof seal. When properly seated, the two pieces create a tight fit that prevents spills during vigorous shaking.
The set includes a 16-ounce cup and a 25-ounce cup, providing a combined capacity of up to 30 fluid ounces. This makes it versatile enough to mix multiple drinks at once.
