Margarita Glass

Also known as: Margarita bowl, coupette

A specialized stemmed glass with a wide, stepped bowl designed for serving Margaritas, featuring a broad rim perfect for salt.

The distinctive double-bowl shape creates a dramatic presentation and provides ample surface area for the signature salted rim. Standard Margarita glasses hold 10-12 oz, though larger versions exist for frozen drinks. While any rocks glass or coupe works for Margaritas, the dedicated glass has become iconic for the cocktail's presentation, especially in Mexican restaurants and beach bars.

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid
