Key specifications

• Material: wood
• Design: straight, ergonomic handle for comfortable grip

• Compatibility: suitable for standard cocktail glasses and mixing vessels
• Care: hand wash recommended to preserve wood surface

How to use

Place fresh mint leaves, sugar and a wedge of lime into a sturdy glass or mixing vessel. Hold the muddler vertically and press down gently while twisting to bruise the leaves and dissolve the sugar, taking care not to over-muddle to avoid bitterness. For fruit, use moderate pressure and short crushing motions to extract juice without turning solids into pulp. Rinse the muddler after use and dry thoroughly to maintain the wooden surface.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results with a wooden muddler, avoid prolonged soaking in water and do not use in a dishwasher. Use gentle, controlled pressure when working with herbs to release aromatic oils without extracting bitter compounds; with soft fruit, brief crushing motions are sufficient to release juice while preserving texture. Store in a dry place away from direct heat.
