Catering cocktail glasses
Nowadays, cocktails are no longer only drunk at a dinner party, but also during an evening out, in between or during lunch. And what completes the cocktail are the cocktail glasses. Not only does it look chic, but each cocktail glass also has its own function. Cocktail glasses almost always have a stem or stem with a widely divergent, pointed calyx. The foot is wider and therefore provides balance. The stem ensures that when you hold the glass, the cocktail does not heat up due to body heat.
