Learn how to use a body glass for vodka serves, party setups and gifting, plus the care steps that keep this novelty glassware looking its best.
Quick answer
Use the Au Body Glass as a single-serve vodka glass for chilled neat pours or simple mixed drinks, then hand wash and air dry it immediately. Treat it as a display piece and gift rather than an everyday tumbler.
Where a body glass works best
The Au Body Glass suits occasions where the glass is part of the fun: a birthday toast, a hen party table, a secret Santa gift or a small vodka tasting at home. It is less suited to crowded kitchens and busy dinner tables, where its shape invites knocks and its hand-wash-only care adds work.
Because the catalog does not list a capacity, avoid filling it to the brim before you know how much it holds. Pour a measured 25ml or 50ml serve first, then top up with mixer if you want a longer drink.
Serving ideas that flatter the shape
Keep the drink simple so the glass stays the focus. Chilled neat vodka, vodka over a single large ice cube, or a short vodka-and-lemonade serve all work without crowding the design. For parties, set the glasses on a tray rather than passing them hand to hand, and give each guest a small napkin so condensation does not make the glass slippery.
If you are using the glass as a gift, pair it with a miniature bottle and a handwritten note. Check the catalog listing for delivery limits before you promise it to someone abroad.
How to use and care for your Au Body Glass
- Check the glass before first use: Unpack it over a soft surface, inspect the rim and base for chips, and rinse it with warm water and a little mild soap. Common mistake: washing it in hot water straight from the box, which adds unnecessary stress to the glass. Set aside any glass with a visible chip instead of using it.
- Measure your first pour: Pour a 25ml or 50ml measure of vodka first, then add mixer or ice. Common mistake: filling to the rim before you know the glass's capacity, which makes spills likely. Note the level that gives your preferred serve so future pours are consistent.
- Serve on a stable surface: Place the glass on a flat tray or table rather than a sofa arm or crowded counter. Common mistake: handing the glass around a party, where its shape is easy to knock over. Keep a small tray near the serving area for used glasses.
- Hand wash immediately after use: Rinse with warm water and mild soap, use a soft cloth rather than a scouring pad, and dry straight away. Common mistake: leaving it to soak, which can leave water marks and make the glass harder to dry. Never put it in the dishwasher, as the catalog states it is not dishwasher safe.
- Store it where it will not knock against others: Stand it upright on a shelf with space around it, or return it to its box for gifting. Common mistake: storing it loose in a drawer with metal tools. Keep the original packaging if you plan to give the glass as a gift.
