I need a new shaker. The one I have now is tiny and I get tired of having to make drinks one at a time.

Just wondering if anyone owns a Boston shaker or if you own the traditional cobbler shaker. The Boston shakers look pretty cool and I think I'll try one out. Wifey told me to pick one out for my birthday.

I like my glass shaker since doesn't freeze my hands like my metal ones do.

I just drink a bunch of different types of liquor and jump up and down a bit.

That method works too but my guests get annoyed when I regurgitate the drink into a glass for them.

What, are they too good to mix their own drinks?

Lazy SOBs.

I would go with the Boston Shaker. All of my traditional ones are a pain in the ass to get the top of sometimes.
