Uses For A Martini Glass
Martinis are a versatile and fun drink. I know when I run out of beer but still want a drink I can always fall back on a martini. My favorite Martini drink is the Lemon drop, but if I am out of lemons I will usually opt for a dirty martini. If I am out of olive juice then I usually have a vodka martini straight up. If I am out of Vodka, then it is time for bed.
In spite of martinis being a great fall back drink. The glasses are just as useful. They can be used for decorating and table center pieces. They even look cool just sitting on the counter or in that glass doored cupboard.
If you are having an adult Birthday party and you want to create a festive center piece for your table, you can use the martini glass. It doesn’t matter whether you are actually serving alcohol or not you just want to create a festive look.
Take 3 martini glasses and fill them with colored birthday confetti. Then sprinkle additional confetti on the table. You can also place tiny wrapped packages near the stems of the glasses on the confetti. Then take some very small wrapped square packages and stick them on a toothpick and place into the confetti filled martini glass as a garnish.
This makes a very festive birthday table center piece. You can also create similar variations for Christmas parties, and Halloween parties or whatever event you are having.
Another great use of the martini glass is for serving desserts. A martini glass filled with cool lime jello and garnished with a maraschino cherry looks like an appletini, but is actually a cool low call desert. Chocolate pudding topped with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles topped garnished with a piece of Dove chocolate also makes a great dessert display. And it is oh so delicious.
Fruit cocktail or melon balls also look great in a large clear martini glass. Just remember to have a suitable garnish on a toothpick or cocktail sword such as a strawberry, cherry, or piece of chocolate. You can use your imagination and let your creative juices go wild.

Stemless Clear Martini Glasses On Clearance
I like the look of the Classic Martini glasses. But as far as carrying them around and mingling at parties, they are not the most convenient. Especially after you’ve drank a martini or two. But the stemless martini glass feels good in your hand and is easy to hold and carry.
It’s also less prone to spills. It’s practical, feels good in your hand and looks good too. Plus they seem to be in style right now. I like to find great deals on my bar supplies, and I recently discovered that these stemless Martini glasses are on clearance at Swank. So you can save a little and get free shipping too.
I’ll also be looking for some bulk deals for the serious party host.

The Modern Martini Glass
The Martini is the classic cocktail party drink. The cool factor of the Martini cannot be denied from the classic shaken not stirred, James Bond Martini, to the much missed 3 Martini lunch of the 1960’s. Nothing says hip like holding a Martini in your hand.
What makes the Martini so cool? Well, it’s the glass. That’s why at Best Martini Glass we want to help you find the best Martini Glass for your cocktail party or Perfect Martini creation.
The original clear long stemmed Classic Martini Glass is, well, still a classic. But now there are so many new variations, that you can find one to fit any taste and style. From etched glass, to colored stems.
One of my favorite Martini Glass stores is Swank. They have the colorful Mardi Gras Martini Glasses. The sexy Ember Martini Glass. The colorful Calypso Glass, and the Cosmopolitan Swerve Martini Glass with a curved stem.
A Huge selection of giant over sized Martini Glasses, and my personal favorite the stem less Martini Glass. The stem less Martini Glass just like the new stem less wine glasses are becoming the newest most popular glasses. If you have ever had a 3 Martini Lunch or staggered around a cocktail party then you will know why.
Another cool glass featured at Swank is the Chillin Martini Glass. One of the things that makes the Martini drinkable is the chilled Alcohol. That is the whole purpose of shaking or stirring the ingredients with ice. If shaken too vigorously, small pieces of ice can break off into the drink diluting the Alcohol. That is why James Bond prefers his drink stirred and not shaken.
The Chillen Glass will afford you the opportunity to keep your gently stirred Martini cold without having to chug it. It is a two part masterpiece that consists of a glass fish bowl that is to be filled with ice. Then your Martini is poured into a stem less Martini Glass that fits inside and on top of the bowl of ice. The result, a perfectly chilled Martini that you can sip, while finishing that long conversation, and remain coherent.
No matter what your Martini Glass needs are, we hope to help you find the perfect glass for your next soiree.
