“Because "eyeballing it" is how you get inconsistent cocktails and frankly is an attitude problem.”

Al's Full Endorsement
The Leopold jigger is the one serious bartenders use. It's Japanese-style — tall, narrow, with interior measurement lines etched into the metal so you can pour to exact volume without the eyeballing that ruins otherwise sound cocktails.
The set includes a 1oz/2oz and a 0.5oz/0.75oz. The etched lines on the interior allow you to measure to quarter-ounce increments. This matters when a recipe calls for ¾ oz of something and you'd otherwise be guessing, which you would be, and you'd be wrong.
Good stainless steel. Pours cleanly. Sits correctly in the hand. I have used many jiggers. This is the one I reach for.
