Lowball whiskey glass
The lowball glass(or commonly old fashioned glass) aside from cocktail service, the old fashioned gets its name from the drink it is used to serve. In real Lowball glass, cut glass is used, but most modern examples use pressed glass, made by molding. From the late 18th or early 19th century, the design is essentially English. Lowball glasses are made of plain glass.
A muddler can be used to muddle the non-liquid components of a cocktail in old-fashioned glasses with wide brims and thick bases before adding liquid ingredients.
Size of a Lowball whiskey glass
A typical bar glass is made from lowball glassware. They are ideal for drinking drinks like cocktails and other drinks because they typically hold 6 to 10 ounces of liquid. In addition to being rock glasses, lowball glasses can also be used to serve your favorite cocktail or liquor over ice.

Drinks served in whiskey glass
- The Sazerac: There have been a number of different ways to make the Sazerac cocktail, a classic New Orleans original. Rye whiskey is a key ingredient in the more modern Rye Sazerac (circa 1878), which is made with absinthe, Peychaud’s bitters, and sugar. The classic drink used cognac as its base spirit.
- The Premier Paloma: With fresh grapefruit juice, the Premier Paloma takes the Margarita to whole new heights. (Traditionally, the Paloma calls for grapefruit soda.)
- Mai Tai: Any beach bum worth his salt must know how to make a Mai Tai. Do not be fooled by neon-colored drinks or bottled mixes-this is a classic drink that does not need to impress. With a blend of rum, orange liqueur, and lime, it combines the delights of almonds and almond orgeat for a refreshing cocktail.
- The Black Russians: “Black Russians” are known as a “duo” cocktail, which means they use two spirits and liqueur in one recipe, for simplicity. Brussels, Belgium originated this vodka cocktail in 1949, and it has become an old-time favorite ever since. As with any cocktail, you can adjust the ratios of vodka and Kahlua to your taste, but we recommend not overdoing it on the liqueur, as it can be easily made too sweet.
In the cocktail world, the lowball glass is considered to be the king. With its long history dating back to 1880, this classic tipple deserves a deserved place in the history books. Amber isn’t meant for just any glass, Sir. The lowball glass must be dedicated.
A rocks glass, or lowball, is a tumbler that’s short, stout, and has a wide mouth, so you can smell the wonderful aromas that whiskey and Angostura emit. While a single old-fashioned glass holds 6 oz of liquid and ice cubes well, a double holds 12 to 14 oz of liquid comfortably. The glass is not only great for serving its namesake cocktail, but also scotch or bourbon straight, or sours.
