How to Use Double Old-Fashioned Glasses
Double old-fashioned glasses are the most used cocktail glasses, as all bartenders will tell you.
These cocktail glasses are perfect for drinks and cocktails that don’t require a shaker. The drink is built in the glass, as you pour all the cocktail ingredients and stir them. Most cocktails for double old-fashioned glasses include ice.
Here’s what makes double old-fashioned glasses so perfect for a cocktail.
Heavy bottom
All old-fashioned glasses have a heavy bottom, which adds sturdiness and weight to the glass. The sign of a good old-fashioned glass is that it sits nicely in the hand with its substantial weight, without feeling awkward or too heavy.
The purpose of the heavy bottom is that you can blend and pound ingredients like sugar or fruit peels before pouring the cocktail liquids.
A further benefit of the heavy bottom is that it keeps the drink cold for longer. Since most drinks in old-fashioned glasses come with ice, it’s nice to keep them fresh and cool: you get more enjoyment out of your cocktail.
Wide brim
The wide brim allows the drinker to swirl the drink around and drink it slowly and with maximum satisfaction. The wide brim of old-fashioned whiskey glasses lets the drink breathe and naturally develop its aromas.
Double size
As the name suggests, double old-fashioned glasses are larger than normal ones. A typical old-fashioned tumbler has a capacity of 6 to 10 fl oz, while the double can contain larger drinks of 12 to 16 fl oz.
Most bartenders and cocktail experts prefer double old-fashioned glasses because they give more space for ice and the drink to blend. They have a more satisfying size and are versatile enough to be used for smaller drinks as well.
Cocktails Served in Double Old-Fashioned Glasses
The glass gets its name from the Old-Fashioned drink, which blends sugar and whiskey with a dash of orange peel.
Most people enjoy their whiskey on the rocks in a double old-fashioned glass, as well as a Negroni, Amaretto Sour, Sazerac, Mint Julep, and even a Caipirinha.
Use Your Double Old-Fashioned Whiskey Glasses Everyday
It’s not uncommon to find old-fashioned glasses used for water or juice. Their tumbler size and thick base make them feel durable and solid and many people enjoy drinking from them even if it’s not a cocktail.
For example, our JoyJolt Swish Double Old Fashioned tumblers are sleek and stylish and can be used for juice or non-alcoholic drinks. The Radiant Double Old-Fashioned is equally solid and smart without being overpowering and excessive.
