TIMELESS Gin Tonic / Cocktail glass [PASABAHCE] 500ml

The TIMELESS Gin Tonic / Cocktail glass [PASABAHCE] 500ml is a wide-bowled stemmed glass from the TIMELESS collection, suitable for Gin & Tonic, cocktails with ice and aromatic garnishes, and other drinks served Copa-style.

Model 440237 has a capacity of 500ml, a height of approximately 196mm and a bowl diameter of approximately 100mm. The generous bowl provides space for ice, gin, tonic and garnish, while the stem clearly distinguishes this model from stemless Highball and Long Drink glasses.

The geometric faceted design is characteristic of the TIMELESS collection and is inspired by the classic appearance of cut glass. The glass is made from clear glass and should not be confused with crystal glassware.

Why does a Gin Tonic glass have a 500ml capacity?

The 500ml refers to the total capacity of the glass, not to the amount of Gin & Tonic that should be poured for one serving.

A Gin & Tonic is often served with a substantial amount of ice, which occupies a considerable part of the internal volume. Space is also required for the gin, tonic and garnishes used in the recipe.

A 500ml bowl therefore provides room to build the drink without crowding all the ingredients into a glass that is too small, while allowing flexibility for different recipes and serving styles.

Wide-bowled stemmed glass for Gin & Tonic

The TIMELESS 500ml uses a wide bowl and stem, a format commonly associated with Copa-style Gin & Tonic service.

The bowl provides space for ice and garnishes such as citrus slices or peel, fruit, aromatic herbs and other ingredients specified by the recipe.

The stem allows the glass to be held without wrapping the hand directly around the bowl and contributes to the characteristic presentation of a stemmed cocktail glass.

What drinks can be served in the TIMELESS Gin Tonic 500ml?

Although Gin & Tonic is its primary use, the 500ml format can accommodate several types of cocktails and cold drinks.

• Gin & Tonic – gin, tonic, ice and garnish;
• Pink Gin & Tonic – for variations using flavoured gin or fruit ingredients;
• Alcohol-free Gin & Tonic – with non-alcoholic alternatives and tonic;
• gin-based cocktails served with ice and a mixer;
• Spritz and aperitif-style cocktails when the recipe and serving style are suitable for a wide bowl;
• alcohol-free cocktails and mocktails with ice, fruit and aromatic ingredients.

TIMELESS Gin Tonic 500ml or TIMELESS Highball 450ml?

Both models belong to the TIMELESS collection, but they provide distinctly different serving formats.

The TIMELESS Gin Tonic / Cocktail 500ml has a stem and a wide bowl. It provides more room around the upper part of the glass for ice and garnish and is suitable for Copa-style Gin & Tonic and other cocktails that benefit from a generous bowl.

The TIMELESS Highball / Long Drink 450ml is a tall, stemless tumbler with a narrower shape. It is suitable for Whisky Highball, Cuba Libre, Tom Collins, Mojito and other drinks where a spirit is combined with ice and a mixer in a vertical format.

For a Gin & Tonic served with plenty of ice and garnishes, the wide-bowled stemmed glass provides the classic Copa-style presentation. For a more compact Gin & Tonic or other long drinks built in a tall glass, a Highball can also be used.

Gin Tonic Glass, Copa Glass or Cocktail Glass?

This type of glass may be described by several names depending on the market and its intended use: Gin Tonic Glass, Copa Glass or Cocktail Glass.

The wide bowl and stem are the main features that distinguish it from a Highball. In bar service, this format is particularly associated with Gin & Tonic and other cocktails served with ice and garnishes in a generous bowl.

TIMELESS design: geometric faceted pattern

The TIMELESS collection is recognisable by the decorative geometric pattern on the surface of its glasses. The facets create visible reflections and give the TIMELESS family its distinctive appearance.

It is important to distinguish design from material: TIMELESS 440237 is made from clear glass, not crystal. Its faceted design is inspired by the appearance of traditional cut glassware.

How to choose ice and garnishes for Gin & Tonic

In a 500ml Gin Tonic glass, ice occupies a significant part of the available volume. The size and amount of ice should therefore be adapted to the recipe and the intended serving style.

Garnishes can be selected according to the flavour profile of the gin and tonic, including citrus, fruit, aromatic herbs or other ingredients required by the recipe. The wide bowl provides room for these elements without implying that the entire 500ml capacity needs to be filled with liquid.

For cocktail bars, restaurants, terraces or a Home Bar

The 500ml format is suitable for cocktail bars, restaurants, hotels, terraces, lounges and other HoReCa venues where Gin & Tonic and cocktails served over ice are part of the drinks menu.

For a Home Bar, this glass can complement other formats from the TIMELESS collection: Rocks for whisky and short cocktails, Highball for long drinks, and Gin Tonic / Cocktail for drinks served in a wide, stemmed bowl.
