Think of Brookstone’s Perfect Drink kit as “bartender training wheels.” Instead of measuring ingredients for cocktails or just eyeing the ratios, you let a scale and a dedicated app handle the precision work. Just put the shaker on the scale and start pouring: The app will show you when to stop with the brandy, the triple sec, and the lemon juice until the sidecar of your dreams is ready for ice and a shake. It even counts down the optimum 10 seconds of shaking time. “The app needs an update to fix some bugs,” but because it makes so many cocktails well, it’s already welcome at
our parties.
