Best magnesium for sleep in winter: what the evidence actually supports (and realistic recovery benefits too)
Forms, dosing, food sources, and tempering the hype around magnesium glycinate for sleep.
If you’ve seen any of my past write ups of High Camp Flasks gear, you know they don’t just make great-looking drinkware, they make functional tools that work.
Their gear is rugged, dialed, and designed to be used in real-life settings, whether that’s deep in the backcountry or hosting drinks at home.
And now, they’ve brought back one of their most popular pieces: the Highball Shaker, reengineered for bigger batches, faster mixing, and smoother hosting at your next cocktail party.

Mix like a pro, relax like a guest
This isn’t just a scaled-up cocktail shaker, it’s a full cocktail batching system.
With a full 1-liter capacity, the Highball Shaker lets you mix up to 8 drinks at once, keeping them perfectly chilled (without freezing your hands) thanks to vacuum insulation.
The two-part design includes a 750ml mixing chamber and a 250ml expanding strainer, which makes room for ice and ingredients while keeping everything sealed and spill-free.
Whether you’re batching Negronis before dinner or Margaritas for a crew, this shaker is built for real-world hosting. Just shake, taste, serve, and enjoy.
Thoughtful features for better drinks
High Camp’s attention to detail really comes through in this release.
Here’s what makes the Highball Shaker different from any other shaker I’ve used:
- UpScale Jigger™ – This extra-large jigger includes precise scaling marks (1, 2, 4 oz on one side, ¾, 1½, 3 oz on the other) so you can easily scale up any recipe with zero guesswork.
- No condensation, no leaks – The vacuum-insulated design keeps your hands dry and your drinks ice-cold, even through aggressive shaking.
- Open-sided strainer – This clever detail lets you taste, adjust, or add ice without disassembling everything.
- Distiller-grade 18/8 stainless steel – Protects the flavor of your spirits without any metallic aftertaste.
- Electrogloss finish – Rinses clean like glass, with no lingering smells or stains.
There’s no plastic anywhere, everything is BPA and phthalate-free, and built to last a lifetime (backed by warranty, of course).
For scale reference, here’s how it stacks up:
Serve now, or stash for later
Once your batch is ready, it transfers perfectly into a High Camp Firelight Flask for drinks on the go; a combo that is highly recommended if you’re taking your cocktails to the beach, trailhead, or cabin.
You can also just keep it in the highball shaker if you like!
Final thoughts
There’s a reason High Camp gear keeps showing up in my home bar and camp kit, it’s designed by people who actually use it.
The Highball Shaker looks great, and fixes all the pain points that make most cocktail shakers a little frustrating.
If you love the craft of cocktails but want to spend less time measuring, shaking, and cleaning, this is the tool that brings your skills to scale.
One batch, eight drinks, and you’re back at the party.
