An original 1930s American aluminium Konga cocktail shaker, with red Bakelite spinning handles. With the marketing line “Don’t shake, Rotate” this novel idea ensured that the cocktail contents were ‘tumbled’ rather than aggressively shaken, which some connoisseurs claimed ‘damaged’ the ingredients. Either way, this is a show stopping way to impress your guests. Once the lid has been firmly screwed in place, hold the two red handles and rotate to mix.
