A highball glass, a glass tumbler, contains 8 to 12 fluid ounces (240 to 350 ml). It is used to serve highball cocktails and other mixed drinks.
A highball glass is taller than an Old Fashioned glass, and shorter and wider than a Collins glass.
Famous quotes containing the word glass:
“Each day I live in a glass room
Unless I break it with the thrusting
Of my senses and pass through
The splintered walls to the great landscape.”
—Mervyn Peake (1911–1968)
