Description
- Shape: Tall and cylindrical. Unlike a rocks glass (often called an old fashioned glass) which is shorter and wider, a Hi-Ball is slender and can hold more liquid.
- Size: 240 ml (milliliters) is a common size for a Hi-Ball glass, though they can range from around 240 ml to 350 ml or even larger.
- Capacity: 240 ml is roughly equivalent to 8 ounces, which is a good size for a tall drink with ice.
- Uses: Due to its size and shape, the Hi-Ball is perfect for cocktails that include a lot of mixer or soda, like a Gin & Tonic, Rum & Coke, or a Screwdriver. They can also be used for non-alcoholic drinks like iced tea, lemonade, or even just plain water with ice and a twist of citrus.
Here are some additional things to note about Tumbler Hi-Ball glasses:
- Material: They are typically made of clear glass, but can also be found in coloured glass or with etched designs.
- Durability: Since they don’t have a stem, Hi-Ball glasses are generally quite sturdy and less prone to tipping over compared to wine glasses.
- Versatility: Their simple design makes them a very versatile glass that can be used for a variety of drinks.
