Is a party really a party if it doesn’t begin and end with some shots of your favorite liquor? Shot glasses can be sold individually or as sets. They come in all sorts of designs and can be made from glass, metal or plastic. The choice is endless and novelty versions are very popular! Most hold between one and two ounces of liquor and they can be used for spirits such as whiskey or vodka. However, the most popular tipple is tequila – ice cold and with a slice of lime. No dinner party or family gathering is complete without them. Why not treat yourself to a gorgeous set of shot glasses? When you are not using them they look great on display.

Tequila shot glasses also make lovely gifts. If a friend or family member has a birthday, anniversary or housewarming coming up and you are struggling to find a gift, shot glasses could be what you need. Many of them come in gift packaging and many have unique designs and patterns. You can even get custom shot glasses that have been engraved with names or personal messages for the recipient. Personalised shot glasses are great as gifts for bridesmaids and groomsmen. Pick yourself up a lovely set of shot glasses and enjoy your tipple in style!
