Crushing it.
A muddler is essential for many cocktails made with fresh herbs or fruit—it helps gently release all those flavorful juices or oils for the most vibrant-tasting drinks around. This version is made from black walnut and finished with natural oils and beeswax for a polished look, and is tall enough to fit any glass you fancy.
