What is a Mixing Glass used for?

A Mixing Glass, sometimes referred to as a Stirring Glass, is used for cocktails that are stirred with ice and a bar spoon rather than shaken. The bartender adds the ingredients and ice to the vessel and combines them with controlled stirring movements.

The stir technique allows the bartender to control the chilling and dilution of the drink during preparation. It is commonly used for classic cocktails such as the Negroni, Manhattan and Martini, depending on the recipe and chosen preparation method.

Why does space for ice matter?

Ice plays an essential role when preparing a stirred cocktail. It chills the drink while also providing the controlled dilution that takes place as the ingredients are stirred.

The approximately 720ml capacity of the ELYSIA provides room for the cocktail ingredients and ice cubes while allowing a bar spoon to move smoothly around the ice during stirring.

Mixing Glass vs Shaker – what is the difference?

A Mixing Glass and a cocktail shaker are tools intended for different cocktail-making techniques.

• Mixing Glass: ingredients are stirred with ice using a bar spoon and the stir technique.
• Shaker: ingredients and ice are vigorously agitated inside a closed vessel using the shake technique.

The choice between the two depends primarily on the cocktail recipe and its ingredients. For drinks designed to be stirred, a mixing glass gives the bartender control over mixing, temperature and dilution.

ELYSIA design for cocktail preparation and presentation

The ELYSIA collection by PASABAHCE is distinguished by its geometric glass decoration. The clear glass keeps the ingredients, ice and movement of the bar spoon visible throughout the preparation process.

This makes the ELYSIA Mixing Glass particularly suitable for bars and HoReCa venues where cocktails are prepared in front of guests and the preparation itself becomes part of the presentation.
