There are two ways: First, keep a martini glass in your fridge. Alternatively, while you’re building your martini in a shaker or mixing tin, fill your martini glass with ice to chill it.

This Schott Zwiesel glass channels the classic design of a V-shaped martini glass with a contemporary approach. The bowl of the glass is suspended on a whisper-thin stem, with an angular lip to prevent sloshing or spilling. While the glass has an elongated, sophisticated silhouette, it’s dishwasher-safe and constructed from chip-resistant glassware that offers gorgeous clarity.

Built to withstand any accidents, JoyJolt’s stemless martini glasses are crafted from durable, dishwasher-safe, lead-free crystal. The two octagonal glasses have a unique, off-base design with an ergonomically curved edge, so they will nestle comfortably in your hand. Plus, the angular design is a bit of a conversation starter. For my money, I would never want to drink a martini out of anything but a coupe glass," says Jordan Johnson, head bartender at The Register. "As a bartender who is always thinking about the beauty of the finished product, the coupe glass affords a smooth curvature in its lines as well as a slightly tapered mouth. This gives you the ability to position the garnish closer to the center of the glass, which keeps all aromatic elements of the garnish closer to home." We loved the durability of these glasses and the fact that they're dishwasher safe, too. And the glass is small enough that garnishes perch perfectly on the edge. It’s your choice! Traditionally, a martini is made with gin, and purists would agree. You can, however, opt for vodka or a split-base martini.

We felt this particular iteration of the coupe glass to be an excellent entry-level option because it's sturdy, heavy, and affordable, with a design that's welcoming without being overly fussy. Plus, with a 7-ounce capacity, the coupes feature a standard lip and solid pressed glass construction. The glass held a generous 6 ounces (7 technically, with room for a wash line). In keeping with the old-school coupe shape, these glasses are quite small, holding just over 4 ounces each. That's enough volume for a decent-sized martini, but instead of making a double, you're going to have to mix a second when you finish the first.Audrey Saunders, a protégé of DeGroff, spread the glass to other bars, and it became a key part of the glassware at her own bar, Pegu Club in New York City. Saunders served classic martinis in the glass, attempting to break preconceptions that larger drinks are better. Other bars followed her lead, including Please Don't Tell and Death & Co., both in the East Village in Manhattan. [1]
