St. George Strainer – Copper

The Copper St. George Strainer is a classic rendition of the cocktail strainer with fine details that make all the difference. The Copper St. George strainer is a take on the classic Hawthorne strainer, which was
patented in the late 1800s and followed the popularity of the Julep strainer. The coil used in the Hawthorne strainer is effective and easily cleaned and allows it to fit many different glass sizes which helped to build its popularity. Today a quality Hawthorne strainer is an absolute necessity in any bartender or cocktail enthusiast’s kit.

The St. George Strainer is available in a selection of 4 beautiful finishes – stainless steel, copper, gold, and gunmetal black. The elegant design means this strainer is as beautiful as it is effective. The tight coil ensures a snug fit in a mixing glass or Boston shaker, while the dual prongs help to securely secure the strainer against the glass or shaker. The crossed perforations allow for a smooth, seamless pour for your cocktail. This classic strainer is used by top bartenders and home enthusiasts across the country, and it is always highly rated by our customers.
