What is a High-Ball Glass
High-ball glasses are commonly high tumblers with a flat bottom and straight walls. They offer a large capacity of 8-12 oz on average. Highball glasses are generally used for long drinks. You can enjoy your cocktail for a long time at the party or just at home in a close circle of friends. You have a wide selection of delicious highball cocktails, named after the glasses. Usually, they are made of hard liquor mixed with some kind of soda or juice. The standard proportion is 1:2. These cocktails are perfect for summer parties since most highball cocktails are served with lots of ice. However, you can make other simple alcohol mixes (for example, gin and tonic), or alcohol with juice (for instance, a screwdriver).

Collins glassware is usually taller and boasts the capacity of 12-16 ounces. Delmonico, on the other hand, is smaller and offers the volume of 5-8 ounces.
