It's hard to refuse a nice little cocktail. A booster of choice for a slow start to the week or a difficult weekend. And then on weekends, we enjoy a cocktail during an outing with friends or a date that goes well. But with or without alcohol, it is a drink that we would also love to bring home. To drink solo in front of Bridget Jones or to put in the hands of our dear and tender so that he can concoct a magic potion for a romantic evening. The problem ? You have to know how to dose to perfection...

Technology made in France
This shaker 2.0, we owe it to Charlotte Saunier-Terrier and Raphaël Terrier, a French couple. They had the idea of starting an American company "Magnified Self" in 2013 and to start off with a bang, they decided to create this first connected shaker from their offices in Normandy.
Available for pre-order
The market launch of "B4RM4N" is scheduled for June 2015. But it is already available for pre-order on Kickstarter at a price of 95 euros. These reservations will make it possible to finance the first industrial series. Are you tempted?
