A highball glass (also known as a long drink glass) is the classic choice for “long” cocktails: tall, straight-sided, with just the right amount of room for ice, bubbles, and a generous garnish. It’s the glass that lets you serve cleanly and quickly, with a polished result at the bar or at home.
Why Choose a Highball Glass
The highball is designed for long, mixed drinks: it better preserves effervescence, lets aromas breathe, and keeps an elegant visual structure (ice + color + garnish). For professional service, it’s also a highly efficient format: easy to hold, stable, and often available in sturdy or stackable versions.
Which Cocktails It’s Perfect For
The highball glass is ideal whenever you have a spirit + a mixer (or a base) and plenty of ice: Mojito, Gin & Tonic, Cuba Libre, Whisky Highball, and more broadly, fresh and sparkling long drinks.
What’s the Right Capacity for a Good Highball
In practice, a highball glass typically holds around 24 to 35 cl (depending on the model and use), striking the right balance between ice, dilution, and drinking comfort. Some “long drink” glasses can hold more, but the core highball range stays within this zone.
How to Choose the Right Highball Glass
For a truly consistent (and effective) selection, focus on these 4 key criteria:
Durability for service: thick glass, heavy base, good resistance to everyday knocks.
Shape: straight sides and enough height for ice, citrus wheels, mint, and more.
Material: tempered/reinforced glass for high-volume service, or lead-free crystalline/crystal for a more premium look at the table or in a cocktail bar.
Care: dishwasher compatibility and stackability if you’re catering to professional use.
The Highball Glass Within a Cocktail Glassware Range
The highball is often the first glass to stock in bulk, since it covers so many recipes. To round out your range, pair it with a “rocks” glass (short) and a coupe/cocktail stemware glass: together, they cover 80% of customer needs without spreading yourself too thin.
What size highball glass should I buy for mixed drinks?
Most highball glasses hold 8 to 12 oz (240–350 ml), which suits a single spirit measure plus mixer and ice. If you make gin and tonics or Tom Collins, look at the 12 oz range — the taller wall keeps carbonation longer. Anything under 8 oz leaves no room for ice once you pour the mixer.
What is the difference between a highball and a Collins glass?
Both are tall and straight-sided, but a Collins glass is narrower and usually holds 10–14 oz, while a highball is slightly wider at 8–12 oz. The narrower Collins profile slows dilution and preserves fizz. In practice, either works for the same drinks, so choosing between highball vs Collins glasses often comes down to shelf space and how much mixer you pour.
Are highball glasses dishwasher safe?
Machine-pressed soda-lime glasses handle dishwashers well on a normal cycle. Thin, hand-blown crystal or gold-rimmed designs should be washed by hand with warm water and mild soap to avoid clouding and rim wear. If you want dishwasher safe highball glasses, check the wall thickness — heavier bases resist thermal shock and chipping in crowded racks.
How many highball glasses do I need for entertaining at home?
A set of six covers a typical dinner party; eight to twelve suits regular hosting since guests often switch drinks and leave glasses behind. Buying a matching set of highball glasses for home bar use also makes replacement easier — single glasses from a discontinued line are hard to source. Two sets of four is a flexible starting point.
