I have yet to see a recipe that specifically calls for them. Any drink that calls for a cocktail glass should be fine. If you have a wide array of glassware like we do, then the recipe itself will help guide you for your glassware choice. In my mind, simple but elegant drinks like Martinis, Alaskas,...

I've been looking all over for that style of glass that's just a few ounces bigger. Libby DOES have one, but it's thick and not really the right glass. I spent two hours yesterday looking for that glass, and so far just found a whole bunch that are crystal - and at least $12/stem. Ouch. This...
