Shot Glasses

Maybe the most fun thing about setting up your home bar is picking out the shot glasses you will use. A shot glass is a short, durable glass made for drinking "shooters" or "shots," small, potent alcoholic drinks made to be drunk in one gulp. The standard shot glass holds one and a half ounces of liquid, though there are small "short shot" glasses that hold one ounce.

Shot glasses are a popular collectable. Souvenir shot glasses are available from just about any travel destination in the world. There are also glasses that commemorate significant events, from the Christmas season to man's landing on the moon. Shot glasses have become a favorite gift item, also.
