Building a Home Bar – Part 2 of 3 – Martini Glasses, Cognac snifters etc
In Part 1 we covered basic utensils and barware - items such as Boston shakers, Hawthorn strainers, muddlers etc.
Now it's time to take a look at the second part in our home bar series, glassware. Buy the best quality you can afford, and always wash glassware by hand to prevent chips and cloudy build-ups. Stick to the sizes shown so that your drinks look right in the appropriate glassware. Bottoms up!
1. Martini glass: 4 - 6 oz
2. Old fashioned / rock glass: 8 - 10 oz
3. Collins glass: 10 - 12 oz
4. Champagne flutes: 5 - 8 oz
5. Wine glass: 10 - 14 oz
6. Shot glass: 1 0z
7. Cordial glass: 2 oz
8. Brandy snifters: 9 - 12 oz
9. Margarita glass: 9 - 11 oz
Subtract and add at your leisure. At the very least you'll need martini glasses, old-fashioned glasses and Collins glasses for a basic bar setup.
