It's amazing how popular such a small glass can be. The ubiquitous shot glass typically holds between 1 and 3 ounces of liquor. Designed to hold a single swallow of alcohol (such as whiskey or vodka) or a mixed shooter, shot glasses have become favorite collector and gift items. Shop for them for your home bar, to complete your glassware collection or to give as a gift.
Instructions
1. Add crystal shot glasses to your cart when you shop for other barware. Department store catalogs and bridal registries often suggest wine and cocktail glasses, yet shot glasses are not often featured. Shop for elegant shot glasses wherever you find stemware, glassware and ice buckets.
2. Buy chocolate shot glasses when you want a delightful confection to serve with your dessert liqueur. These are typically made of dark chocolate, and you fill them with your choice of cordial.
3. Use plastic shot glasses at your outdoor barbecue, picnic or cookout. You can find durable or even disposable shot glasses made of plastic in various sizes. Some come footed or with mini handles to look like mugs or beer steins.
4. Shop for shot glasses when you travel. Shot glass collecting is a huge hobby, and nearly every tourist location offers shot glasses that can serve as inexpensive mementos of your visit. A few are made of plastic, although most are made of glass. At fine shops, you can even find these collectibles in crystal.
5. Purchase peppermint candy shot glasses to use as holiday stocking stuffers or as novelties at your next winter party. They taste just like candy canes and are used to hold liquor or liqueurs. They can also add a minty flavor to cola.
6. Shop for customized shot glasses to use as corporate gifts, prizes or giveaways. Shot glasses are among the most popular promotional items because they are easy to imprint with logos and are popular with collectors, drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Even glass or crystal ones are relatively inexpensive yet useful and fun.
7. Select an interesting gift for your wedding party members, a friend or a fellow shot glass collector with personalized shot glasses. A ceramic shot glass can be fully personalized with a full-color image, or you can choose to have a glass shot glass etched or engraved with your recipient's monogram.
