How to Choose a Hand-Blown Glass for Iced Coffee and Highballs
A useful drinking glass should match the drink, serving size, and way you store it. Here are the main details to compare when choosing a hand-blown glass.
Choose the capacity for the drink
A shorter 11.8 fl oz (350 ml) glass works well for a flat white, juice, or spirits served neat or on the rocks. A taller 15.5 fl oz (460 ml) glass provides more room for iced coffee, iced tea, highballs, and infused water.
Look at the material and rim
Lead-free borosilicate glass offers a clear, lightweight appearance. A gently flared rim creates a distinct silhouette while keeping the drink visually prominent.
Consider storage
A gently tapered, stackable shape can reduce the amount of cabinet space used by a set of glasses. Check the dimensions before purchasing to make sure the glass suits your shelves and preferred serving size.
Follow the product care instructions
Sundayware's Flared Hand-Blown Glass should be washed by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Avoid dishwashers, microwaves, and sudden temperature changes.
