What glass should I serve cocktails in?

Should a Strawberry Daiquiri be served in a Martini glass or Margarita glass? Can you serve a Tequila Sunrise in a hurricane glass? With such a variety of cocktail glasses on offer, you may feel like you need a degree in bartending just to choose the perfect glass for your cocktail, which is why this cocktail glassware guide is here to help.

Whether you're throwing a party for friends or opening your own cocktail bar, choosing the right cocktail glass is not only about the presentation, but the taste also. Wide rim glasses are perfect for sipping strong cocktails and can be accessorised with cocktail decorations and fruit slices, while taller glasses are ideal for layered cocktails and also leave plenty of extra room for ice. This guide will ensure you're not serving guests a Margarita in a Pina Colada glass.

Martini Glasses

A classic cocktail glass, made even more popular by James Bond’s famous quote 'shaken not stirred', the Martini glass is also commonly called a 'cocktail glass'. This type of stemmed glass usually holds between 5 and 10oz. As well as a serving up a variety of Martini cocktails (classic, dry, dirty), the fluted design makes it ideal for strong, small cocktails such as a Cosmopolitan, Manhattan or Sidecar.



A classic Martini cocktail contains 3 measures of gin and ½ measure of vermouth, which can be stirred in mixing glass with ice before being strained into a Martini glass and served with an olive or lemon twist.

You can also use a Margarita glass for a variety of frozen cocktails, such as a Daiquiri, or even as a chilled dessert glass.



A Margarita cocktail contains 2 measures of silver tequila, 1 measure of lime juice and 1 measure of Cointreau, which are shaken with ice, before pouring into a ready prepared lime and salt coated rimmed Margarita glass filled with crushed ice.
