Description

What bar or kitchen would be complete without a Cookin Wit’ Gus Shot Glass 1.75oz. A shot glass is a glass originally designed to hold or measure spirits or liquor. Those spirits are either imbibed straight from the glass (“a shot”) or poured into a cocktail (“a drink”). An alcoholic beverage served in a shot glass and typically consumed quickly, in one gulp, may also be known as a “shooter”.

Most shot glasses hold around 1.25 oz. to 1.5 oz., but there is no official standard size for a shot. Some shot glasses can be less than an ounce and others can be over 3 ounces. The most common size being 1.5 oz. The capacity of this Shot Glass 1.75oz

Shot glasses are often called a “jigger” or “pony.” The size of a shot glass can vary depending on the purpose it is used for. For example, a “jigger” shot glass may hold up to 3 ounces (89 milliliters) of liquid, while a “pony” shot glass may hold up to 2 ounces (59 milliliters).

If you’re wondering about the bottom, the thick bottoms maintain the temperature of the drink. As the glass is thicker on the bottom, a drinker’s hand doesn’t warm up to the liquid (which can change the flavor). These jiggers are machine washable and are pretty durable as they sometimes slip and get dropped.

Some people tap their glass on the bar as a quiet tribute to absent friends and comrades. In Ireland, it was believed that liquor contained spirits that might be harmful if consumed. Tapping the glass dispelled those spirits.

Shot glasses mask great gift ideas (or not) for those long nights when you’re up making sure that smoker is doing its job. Probably a better use would be before and after food has been served and everyone is standing around celebrating or commiserating.
