Highball Glass
A highball glass (also called a long drink glass ) is the classic choice for "long" cocktails: tall, straight, with enough room for ice, bubbles, and a generous garnish. It's the glass that allows you to serve cleanly, quickly, and with a crisp presentation, whether at the bar or at home.
Why choose a Highball glass
The highball glass is designed for longer drinks: it retains carbonation better, allows aromas to breathe, and maintains an elegant visual presentation (ice + color + garnish). In professional settings, it's also an efficient format: easy to handle, stable, and often available in robust or stackable versions.
For which cocktails
The highball glass is ideal as soon as you have a spirit + a mixer (or a base) and lots of ice: Mojito, Gin Tonic, Cuba Libre, Whisky Highball , and more generally fresh and sparkling long drinks.
What capacity is needed for a good Highball?
In practice, a highball glass is usually around 24 to 35 cl (depending on the model and intended use), which strikes a good balance between ice, dilution, and drinking comfort. Some long drinks may have a larger capacity, but the core of a highball glass remains within this range.
How to choose the right Highball glass
For a truly coherent (and profitable) subcategory, I advise you to emphasize 4 criteria in your filters/arguments:
Robustness for service : thick glass, heavy base, good resistance to everyday shocks.
The shape : straight sides and sufficient height for ice, citrus slices, mint, etc.
The material : “hardened”/reinforced glass for large service volumes, or crystalline/lead-free crystal for a more premium look in table and cocktail bar.
Maintenance : dishwasher compatibility and stackability if you're aiming for the pro level.
The Highball glass in a range of cocktail glassware
The highball glass is often the first glass to stock in quantity, because it covers many recipes. To complete your range, you can pair it with a short "rocks" glass and a stemware coupe/cocktail glass: you cover 80% of customer requests without spreading yourself too thin.
