What is a muddler? It is a bartender's tool, used like a pestle to mash—or muddle—fruits, herbs, and/or spices in the bottom of a glass to release their flavor.

- Choose a sturdy mixing glass, a pint glass, or a shaker tin. If you choose a thin-walled glass, you risk breaking or chipping the glass with your muddler.
- Place the leaves into the bottom of the glass. Add sugar, pieces of fruit, or whatever else the recipe calls for.
- Place the muddler in the glass. Press down with it lightly on the leaves and give a few gentle twists. If there's also fruit in the glass, you should see juice squirting out from the flesh.
- When your kitchen smells minty (or basil-y or thyme-y or herby), you're done.
