What are margarita glasses?

One can actually no longer speak of the margarita glass. There are many different types of margarita glasses. Of course, that does not mean that there is no “primeval model”. The classic margarita glass is characterized by the long stem and the glass with the “double bubble”. The glass has a characteristic double curve with a wide and flattened upper part. This is important for the drinking experience (more about that later), but also for the garnish options. Of course you will find these classic glasses at APS Bar & Glass Supply. After all, we know our classics. But if you are looking for a contemporary variation, you can also contact us. We also offer margarita glasses that do not have this characteristic classic silhouette, but nevertheless fall into the same category.

For which cocktails?

Which margarita glasses you order depends partly on the cocktails you serve, but also on your style. After all, no one forces you to choose glasses with a traditional design. Maybe you are a purist, but perhaps you are mainly looking for glasses that match the style of your occasion. To start with the most important question: which cocktails are served in margarita glasses? Of course you can't ignore the classic margarita. This cocktail is made from tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, sugar syrup and coarse sea salt and a lime wedge for garnish. If you serve this cocktail, you will of course do so in a margarita glass. But there are even more cocktails that are perfect to serve in a nice margarita glass. The margarita falls under the short drinks. Many other short drinks can also be served in a margarita glass. Think of cocktails such as the Rob Roy, Daiquiri, Manhattan or Espresso Martini.

Why specifically margarita glasses?

Many cocktails come in specific glasses. Although margarita glasses are ideal for short drinks, not all short drink cocktails are served in these glasses. For some cocktails, tumblers or old fashioned glasses are more suitable. When do you specifically choose a margarita glass? The secret lies in the wide opening of the glass. This allows you to taste a wide variety of flavors. The classic margarita cocktail is a perfect example of this. You want to taste the salt, lime and cocktail in every sip. Cocktails that are not provided with a decorative, but mainly a functional garnish are therefore ideally suited to be served in margarita glasses.
