HOME BAR EQUIPMENT
A properly equipped home bar may resemble an auxiliary kitchen, and indeed at home, a number of generally kitchen-oriented items may find themselves constantly in the bar. Nevertheless, to make good cocktails, the right equipment must be used.
Given below is a range of basic bar equipment to get you started:
Cocktail shakers
Peg Measure / Jigger
Mixing spoon – long enough to prevent your fingers dipping into drink
Hawthorne – looks pro, great for quick straining during multiple use
Muddler - To extract the juices of citrus fruit peel.
Ice scoop
Bottle Opener
Blender - A blender is needed in many recipes, especially those in which ice or fruit are to be mixed thoroughly with other ingredients to produce a smooth, creamy texture.
Stirrers
Wine opener
Pourers
Small, sharp knife
Cutting board
Other essential tools are items such as coasters, straws and kitchen towel.
