Il '''cocktail shaker''' è uno strumento utilizzato per miscelare gli ingedienti nella preparazione di [[cocktail]] atraverso lo squotimento dello strumento stesso.

A shaken cocktail is made by putting the desired ingredients (typically [[fruit juices]], [[syrups]], [[liqueurs]] and [[ice cubes]]) in the cocktail shaker. Then it is shaken heavily for a while, ranging from 5 seconds to 20 seconds, depending on the taste desired. Drinks that are meant to be clear should be stirred and not shaken, as this will result in the drink becoming cloudy.

==Tipi di shaker==

There are three varieties of cocktail shakers:

*The Boston Shaker: A two-piece shaker consiting of a metal bottom and glass or plastic mixing bowl. A separate strainer is required for this type shaker if crushed ice is used.
