When choosing a cocktail shaker, there are two main types to consider: a 2-piece shaker (the ‘Boston Shaker’ shaker), which has one small cap that you wedge at a slight angle into the larger bottom cup (which makes dismantling it easier), or the 3-piece shaker (a ‘Cobbler Shaker’), which already has the strainer and lid included, and is therefore often the easier option for those new to cocktail making. There's also a brush that is long enough to wash the shaker and other pieces effectively to prevent odour for when you're making the next round.
