For use with a cocktail shaker tin, this strainer sits inside the tin where it can hold the ice back and allows a clean pour from the shaker rim. On the handle is a divot which helps the strainer hold on the rim of the tin. Made from high grade steel, the Hawthorne Strainer has a polished finish. Using 18/8 steel gives this bar tool greater longevity over standard barware.  No prong cocktail strainer 0.9mm high grade 18/8 stainless steel Dishwasher safe, but we prefer to wash by hand
