You Bet Your Glass
The Right Glass Rounds Out The Right Experience for the Guest
Sure,
what’s actually in the glass is probably the most important commodity
in the bar realm — that special concoction that keeps them coming back
for more.
But too often, serving that wonderful creation in the
wrong glass spoils the potential perfection of the guest experience.
Whether it’s a top-shelf Margarita deserving of the appropriate glass
or a Mai Tai begging to be served in something wild and fun, the glass
should complement the liquid.
Glassware in nightclubs is becoming more and more creative. With
options ranging from glow-in-the-dark shot glasses to bubble rock
glasses and everywhere in between, excitement can be a glass away.
Shotski’s Bar Supplies
Shotski’s has introduced a line of flashing LED shot glasses. Each
shot glass flashes when it is tapped on a hard surface and is available
in red, blue, green and yellow. Flashing ice cubes are also available
from Shotski’s. They are made from plastic and freezable gel and light
up with a push button switch on the bottom. The multi-color flashing
led ice cubes slowly fade through all seven colors of the rainbow.

Top Shelf Marketing
Top Shelf offers a variety of drinking options, including glass,
plastic and hand-carved items. The most popular is the carved coconut
cup that can be transformed into a monkey or a pirate. Top Shelf offers
many other glasses and cups including the sports stackers that are
designed like footballs and the 23-ounce European pilsner glass for
brew enthusiasts.

Bar Products
Bar Products offers the bottle-top shot cup that can be served from the
bar and also from a foam rack. The Light-up pilsner glass is one of the
more popular items. It stands about seven inches tall and contains a
rubber base for a tighter grip. It is also battery operated and fades
into eight colors. Bar Products also carries stainless steel shot
glasses that are reusable and unbreakable.

Tiki Farm
All things Tiki are the specialty of Tiki Farm, to provide an
island kick to not just Polynesian cocktails but others as well.
Ceramic mugs and glassware with shrunken head designs get people
talking, in good fun. Detailed tiki shot mugs resemble tiny totem
poles, in a number of cool and kitschy designs. Even tiki Martini
glasses feature totemesque stems. Also, by selling the glassware to
patrons, operators find an added revenue stream.
