The 11 Best Margarita Glasses of 2024

Best Overall

West Elm Recycled Mexican Glassware

$40 at West Elm

This hefty set checks all the boxes when it comes to the perfect margarita glass: The thick walls, wide rims, and slight curves work to keep the cocktail insulated, contained, and proportionally salted. These vessels are mouth-blown in Mexico using recycled glass, making for slight variations in each piece that only add to their uniqueness. There are tall or short options, in amber, metallic, lustrous, or plain clear colors, in sets of four or eight — the artisan-designed glasses can house any variation of margarita, but they also make for a versatile option when it comes to serving everyday juice, water, cold brew coffee, whatever.

Dimensions: 3 x 4 inches (short), 2.8 x 5.9 inches (tall) | Capacity: 12 ounces (short), 13 ounces (tall) | Material: Recycled glass | Dishwasher-Safe: No

Best Splurge

Woloch Company Tumbler

$130 at Anthropologie

Your margarita will look gorgeous poured into one of these distinctive tumblers. Every piece is artisan-blown in Mexico from recycled glass and has a unique pattern of blended marbled hues. The flat, wide rim and substantial walls will ensure your cocktail stays icy cold and perfectly balanced, but the glasses can be used for a variety of other beverages as well. If you’re looking to invest in a truly one-of-a-kind set of glasses, these special pieces are worth the splurge.

Dimensions: 3.3 x 3.8 inches | Capacity: 12 ounces | Material: Glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Value

Fortessa Jupiter Double Old Fashioned Glass

$48 at Amazon $48 at Williams-Sonoma

With 12 color options and a fun vintage-y bubbled texture, this glass looks much more expensive than it is. The price would be a good deal for a set of four, and it's actually for six. The durable vessels are dishwasher-safe, and they're big enough to hold the double old fashioned of their name, as well as just about any on-the-rocks cocktail, or to serve as an everyday water glass.

Dimensions: 3 x 4.75 inches | Capacity: 15 ounces | Material: Glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Plastic

DuraClear Tritan Outdoor Margarita Glasses

$80 at Williams-Sonoma $90 at Havenly.com

If you want to enjoy margaritas on the beach or by the pool, shatter-prone glass is a definite no-no. Instead, we prefer Tritan, a BPA-free plastic that's dishwasher-safe and so strong that it's popular in the jars for heavy-duty blenders. Williams Sonoma's set includes a half-dozen extra-large vessels in the classic stemmed shape, each in its own color for quick cocktail ID-ing. As a bonus, the bases fit perfectly inside the bowls, so you can stack the glasses and save on space.

Dimensions: 5.25 x 6.75 inches | Capacity: 16 ounces | Material: Tritan plastic | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Cactus

Libbey Cactus Margarita Glasses, Set of 4

Orig. $35 $26 at Amazon $26 at Wayfair $35 at Walmart

If you're want just the right amount of kitsch for margarita night or taco Tuesday, these fun glasses are the choice for you. The durable glass is safe for dishwasher, as well as freezer if you'd like to do slushy margaritas. Because they're oversized, these vessels can also double as serving dishes for salsas, queso dip, and desserts.

Dimensions: 4.38 x 6.25 inches | Capacity: 16 ounces | Material: Glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Versatile

Bormioli Rocco Bodega Collection Glassware

Orig. $49 $41 at Amazon $44 at Food52 $8 at Sur La Table

“As regular margarita drinkers, our household finds this set of Bormioli Rocco bodega glasses indispensable,” says associate editorial director Megan Soll. “They are the perfect volume for a classic marg on the rocks, it’s easy to salt the rim, they come sparkling clean in the dishwasher every time, and they’re versatile enough to serve other rocks drinks, juice at breakfast, or even parfait cups in a pinch.”

Soll has had the glasses for four years and not one has shattered, clouded, or discolored. “Half the time we default to them as wine glasses as well — a true choose-your-own-adventure piece of drinkware.” She uses the 12-ounce mid-sized version, but you can also get the stackable glass as a 7.5-ounce shortie or an extra-tall 17.25-ouncer.

Dimensions: 4.75 x 3.5 inches | Capacity: 12 ounces | Material: Tempered glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Blue Rim

Novica "Cobalt Classics" Glasses

Orig. $50 $45 at Amazon

A refreshing margarita and a blue-rimmed glass go hand in hand, and this hand-blown Novica set certainly fits the bill. Durable, medium-sized, wide-rimmed, and dishwasher-safe, this set of six glasses elevates any drinking experience. Because the sides curve slightly inwards towards the top, you can expect minimal spillage — even after you’ve had a few. (For a more distinctive look, Novica also makes a colorful "Liquid Confetti" set of similar shaped glasses at a slightly higher price.)

Dimensions: 3.2 x 3.9 inches | Capacity: 10 ounces | Material: Glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Colorful

Material Full Glass Set

View on Materialkitchen.com $65 at Saks Fifth Avenue View on Zola

If you're in the market for a new set of drinking glasses that double as chic cocktail vessels, look no further than this elegant small-footed set from Material. The four-packs of stackable, dishwasher-safe glasses are available in classic clear and a gray called Haze, but we think the green Malachite hue is the one that most screams for a margarita.

"After testing these for months, I like these glasses for just about anything — my daily water with lemon, an after-dinner glass of wine — but I really love them for serving up my favorite cocktails," says senior editor Dana Fouchia. "They’re whimsical and interesting to look at, and they add a touch of elegance that my other cocktail glasses simply do not."

Dimensions: 3.11 x 4.9 inches | Capacity: 12.6 ounces | Material: Borosilicate glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Stemmed

EagleandTwineLLC Mexican Hand Blown Margarita Glass

$48 at Etsy

A bit like a giant coupe glass, the wide, deep-bowled shape of this glass is a great choice for a coated rim, or to hold a frozen margarita — the stem keeps your hands from warming the drink or picking up grains of salt. The blue foot and rim are a modern-classic design, though this set is an artisanal version, blown by hand from recycled glass. Nonetheless, the glasses are thick and durable enough for the dishwasher.

Dimensions: 4.5 x 7 inches | Capacity: 16 ounces | Material: Recycled glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Stackable

Our Place Short Night & Day Glasses

View on Fromourplace.com

Another versatile pick for serving much more than just margaritas, these stackable glasses from Our Place do double duty as everyday drinking glasses and chic barware. You can choose from multiple individual subdued colors (or the bright-blue Azul), and we love the options that give you a set of four different warm or cool tones. These match well but allow guests to identify their marg at a glance.

"As their name implies, these versatile drinking glasses seamlessly go from day to night in my household," says senior commerce editor Danielle St. Pierre, who owns three sets of these glasses. "Beyond the fact that the sets stack neatly in my cabinet, these glasses also make whatever I'm drinking look chic, whether it's sparkling water or an evening spritz. At 12 ounces, they're the perfect size for any beverage. I've even used them to serve frozen treats." (There's also a tall version with a 16-ounce capacity, but they're more expensive and have fewer color choices.)

Dimensions: 3.3 x 3.8 inches | Capacity: 12 ounces | Material: Glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes

Best Large-Capacity

Dos Sueños Margarita Glasses

$53 at Amazon $66 at Wayfair View on Bed Bath & Beyond

Another take on the deep-bowled stemmed margarita glass, this design adds a distinctive blue spiral design for a fun aesthetic element. Each one holds 16 ounces, which is easily enough for a triple 'rita, with thick glass to help insulate an extra-large drink and keep it cold. The substantial body, wide rim, and "cantina" look make these margarita glasses fun — and hard to break — to use for dinner parties.

Dimensions: 4.5 x 6.5 inches | Capacity: 16 ounces | Material: Recycled glass | Dishwasher-Safe: Yes
