25 ReviewsBrand: Grace & GrindColor: BlackFeatures: DESIGNED BY COOKS👫 - My wife and I love to cook but got tired of all the crappy zesters on Amazon so we just made our own. We worked with 83 other pro cooks who helped us design this zester grater. So what makes this one special? IT IS BIG 💪 – This baby is 15 inches tall - more surface area means much faster zesting & grating. It's as tall as a bowling pin yet it fits in our drawer (but we like to hang ours up like a trophy). IT DOES WHAT YOU WANT 👌 - Our zester grater is delicate enough to perfectly zest your lemons yet strong enough to plow through a block of aged parmesan cheese. Trust us - we spent two years fixating on the angle of micro teeth. FEELS DAMN GOOD IN YOUR HANDS ✋ - The handle was custom designed to fit any hand like a dream. We also added a perfectly placed thumb divot for more control. EASIER TO CLEAN 💧 - With the way we curved the blade, it makes it easier for food to release and also to clean. It’s not effortless but much easier to clean than anything else on the market. Binding: KitchenDetails: What else do you need to know about our zester? It was designed with your safety in mind. The teeth were photo chemical etched – not stamped. That means the teeth are going to stay sharper for longer but not too sharp to grate your skin. We also added a non-slip grip at the tip so its less likely to slide when using on a cutting board. Our zester is made out the highest quality stainless steel (430) while the handle has been crafted with PP+TPR. We’ve put a lot of love into this zester and we stand behind it. We are excited for you to try it but if you’re not happy, please let us know and we will make it right within 24 hours.EAN: 0195893761401Package Dimensions: 15.8 x 2.2 x 1.1 inches

Juicers, zesters, graters, peelers, and slicers are considered citrus tools. Citrus like lemon, lime, and oranges are well-known in the cocktail world, and preparing them can be a hassle if you don’t have the proper tools or skills.
How to Use a Citrus Squeezer
Citrus squeezers are made of metal or plastic. They’re two handles with a bowl on the end that fit perfectly together. One bowl has holes at the bottom, and it’s used to hold the sliced fruit in, while the other bowl is used to squeeze the juice out.
Most people assume that the fruit goes into the bowl with the pulp facing up since that would make sense, but this is wrong as you would risk squeezing the juice into your eye. Instead, place the fruit with the pulp facing the holes. This will ensure you’ll get the most out of the fruit and avoid getting juice in your eye.
Citrus Fruits for Cocktails
Lemon. This fruit is commonly used in many cocktail recipes. They add a strong sour taste and provide a bright visual as a cocktail garnish. You can use them for recipes like whiskey sours, lemon drop martinis, or limoncello mojito.
Lime. Popular cocktails are mostly lime-based. Lime has a bitter and sour taste that can balance out your cocktail mixes. Cocktails like gin gimlet, Moscow mules, and lime rickeys are classic cocktails.
Oranges. Citrus fruits are known for their sour flavors, but oranges tend to have a sweeter taste than their cousins. That’s because compared to their acidity, an orange only has 1% acidic content. They’re used for drinks like mimosas, tequila sunrise, and classic screwdrivers.
Grapefruit. This is a hybrid of pomelo and orange. In terms of taste, it bears similarities with oranges. If you want social media-worthy drinks, try making drinks such as blushing lady, grapefruit shandy, or Paloma.
Blood orange. It shares a similar taste with oranges but has an added hint of tang. They’re not super sour, but they provide a marvelous red color to your drinks. You can make beautiful drinks like Coletti royale, blood and sand, and blood sage.
