The most important things that you see at first sight in a bar is the glassware. All the alcohol, beer bottles and those that catches your eyes most are the glasses that are arranged so neatly above the bars and also on the shelves and racks right behind the bar tender. Do you know, that nearly every cocktail has its glass, and that the bartender are all prepared to serve you with the drink you request for? The five most common ones are mentioned below.

In selecting good quality glassware, the glass has to make a clear ‘ping’ sound when it is tapped on. Wine glasses are the most common glassware found on a bar. Serving either cocktails or frozen drinks, wine glasses can be used. Usually it gives a feeling of relaxed and elegant feel to one. The wine glasses complements with the wine itself. White wine glasses are used to serve frozen and tropical drinks, daiquiris and margaritas however, for red wine there is no specific glass to it.

Next, we the old-fashioned glass where it is low glass or also known as rock glass. It is very short tumbler used to serve alcoholic beverages like beers. Or even some serves whisky in them, together with the mixture of ice cubes. It is usually six to ten ounces, equivalent to a 180 to 300ml. There is even a double to it, where it fills about 12 to 16 ounces; equals up to 350 to 400ml. Primarily, this glass are used for shots on the rocks.

More, Collins glasses are served for soft-drinks, sours, and juice-based cocktails. Frequently, the amount used is up to 14 to 16 ounces. This old glass is so popular that the glass that holds it bears the Collins name. Adding crushed ice, gins, lemon juices and sugar and later after shaking it well, adding soda into it, makes its Collin drink.

The right glass makes a difference when it comes to cocktails. High ball glasses look straight at the sides and because it is weighted at the bottom, it prevents the cup from tipping. Mixing drinks into it up to eight to ten ounces. Bar tenders would mix alcohols like tonic, sodas or sours over ice and served to you to drink them. The highball glass is typically created for drinks that are light and refreshing.

And in the modern days, we’ve found shot glasses. Good and heavy shot glasses hold up to 1½ oz; and a short also known as pony glass holds up to 1ounce of liquor.  Quality shot glasses are made with thicker glass than the normal glassware. They are made this way because in tradition, once a shot is taken to throw back the contents fast, they slam the glasses down onto the table. Therefore, there is a need of thicker based, otherwise it breaks.

In conclusion, the cups or glasses that you use each represent its own drink. Whether you have bar tending in mind or building a bar, these are some useful knowledge you could use.
