Did somebody say happy hour?! There’s something so nice about having a cocktail at home during the busy seasons of life. Crazily enough, the holidays aren’t too far away and will likely sneak up on us again just like they seem to do every year. With the holiday season comes more hosting, more entertaining, and more time spent in your kitchen. All fun things if you ask me—especially if you have cute cocktail glasses to do all of that entertaining with!

I’ve rounded up a list of all the best cocktail glasses and am hoping that it will help you all get excited to host some dinner parties and cocktail soirees this season. These all range in style and price, but any of them would be a great addition to your home bar. They also make a great hostess gift!

I absolutely love this adorable ruffle touch to a classic cocktail glass. It’s all in the details!

Seagrass Glasses

If you’re looking for a little extra character compared to your standard glass, look no further than these seagrass glasses. They make me feel like I’m sitting on the beach somewhere in the Hamptons!

Big Top Crystal Glass

These crystal glasses are so luxurious. I would do a mojito or a citrus cocktail with a rosemary sprig in this style.

Double Old-Fashioned Glass

I’m obsessed with the unique and feminine shape of these double old-fashioned glasses. Add them to an open kitchen shelf or bar cart to double up as decor.

I know these are technically martini glasses, but I can’t stop thinking about sipping a margarita out of this one. Throw some salt on the rim and you’re ready to go!

Crystal Double Old-Fashioned Glasses

Nice double old-fashioned glasses are a staple. Don’t be afraid to use them for more than just bourbon! These would also look sharp styled on a bar cart.

Fluted Acrylic Glasses

I had to include some acrylic options for those of us who like to enjoy the occasional cocktail out on our patio! These look classy and you may even trick some people into thinking these are actually glass.

Gold Rimmed Tumblers

The gold rim on these ribbed glasses adds a little extra touch of elegance. I’m envisioning an aperol spritz type of drink in them.
