"margarita glass" news and stories

Shot Glass

These jiggers give what no other glass can – a quick shot of flavor that slides down the throat in one dose. However, before the seventies, shot glasses were mainly used as jiggers to measure other mixed drinks, rather than vessels for the quick burst of booze. Yet another reason I love the seventies.




Martini/Cocktail Glass

The classic martini glass is the most popular go-to vessel for shaken drinks, even if the cocktail in question isn't actually a martini. The size and shape holds no room for ice (bring in the shaker!), and the stem allows the drinker to get through the cocktail without warming the glass and drink with their hands.




Margarita Glass

One of the more unique shapes in the glass world, margarita glasses have a double bowl with an extra-wide upper rim. The narrow base helps amp the color of the drink, while the wide rim allows for salt and other powdered rimmers to be added to the glass.
