Hawthorne vs. Julep: Which Strainer Do You Need

The tool depends on what you’re straining out of. A Hawthorne strainer — like our St. George or Halo styles — has a coiled spring that fits snugly over a shaker tin, built to catch ice and pulp from a shaken cocktail. A Julep strainer is solid and perforated, designed to sit inside a mixing glass and hold back ice while pouring a stirred drink like a Manhattan or Martini — no spring needed since there’s no shaking involved.

For the cleanest possible pour on citrus-heavy shaken drinks, many bartenders “double strain” — Hawthorne first, then a fine mesh strainer on top to catch small ice shards and pulp. Every strainer here comes in stainless steel, copper, gold, or gunmetal black.
