Shot glass
Traditionally, a shot glass was a small, thick glass designed to measure one ounce of liquid, usually liquor, to be either drunk straight, or poured into a mixed drink. Markings, if any, indicated the quantity of fluid at different levels.
Today, the size can vary, but still, the intention is generally to pour a specific amount of liquor. Markings now are more likely logos of organizations, e.g. restaurants/bars, or sports teams.
Most common shot glasses are of three sizes:
"single shot"- 30 cc
"double shot"- 60 cc
"ounce shot"- 50 cc
