Making cocktails is an unrecognised art; you have to get all the ingredients at the right quantities, or your drink is ruined. More than just sticking a slice of lemon on the side of your glass, true garnishes involve various fruits, herbs and spices. A muddler is a highly important tool when getting stuck in to advanced drink mixing. Simply chucking leaves of mint and lumps of ginger will leave you with a flavourless drink. With a muddler you crush your hard ingredients before application to help release the flavours and give yourself a much better drink experience!
