Dinging Coktail Shaker

Bell rings when it's sufficiently mixed.

On the outside of the shaker, a metal striker on a ratchet rail that moves in one direction when shaken. When it's been shaken enough times it hits a bell at the end of the rail and dings signifying the drink's been mixed enough.

When you pour it out by turning it upside down, it resets.

Does anybody else find when they've got a stressful deadline they post dumb ideas on the HB as kind of an escape?

       The issue with shaking is that, not only must you shake it *enough* times, you must also shake it *vigorously* enough. We call them spirits because they must be awakened!   

       So, ya know... add some friction or something. [+]

       This would be inadequate. The drink is shaken enough when and only when the person doing the shaking determines so through years of experience and dedication to the craft.   

       For example, I like to shake the ever-loving fuck out of some cocktails.   

       It is not simply a matter of when a ratcheting bell should decide to ring.

       You might want to look for that missing letter k which obviously flew off the word cocktail with all of that shaking.

       If you make a Margarita or any Sour enough you know the sound it makes when it’s baked. Depends on the ice you use too. Want froth? Shake, shake, shake.
