Bartender's Notes
Double straining is important because the Hawthorne strainer catches larger ice chunks and ingredients, while the fine-mesh strainer filters out tiny ice shards, pulp and herb particles for a smoother, cleaner cocktail. This is mostly necessary for cocktails that were shaken because shaking cocktails causes the ice to break up into tiny pieces that are able to escape the Hawthorne strainer.
