Answer 4

From Wikipedia:

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 and can be seen as a form of collectable.

The most common shot glasses in the United States are of three sizes:

"single shot"- 1.5 fluid ounces (~44 ml)
"double shot"- 3.0 fl. oz. (~89 ml)
"pony shot"- 1.0 fl. oz. (~30 ml)

Answer 8

A shot (jigger) is 1 oz.....however, a good bartender will put 1 1/2 in your drink. Not good for the bar owner, he's loosing money....the mark up on a drink is unreal. It's in the 100"s of percents. Best thing is to stay at home and mix what you want.

Answer 9

1.5 to 2 ounces in a shot. Otherwise, if its your bar at home and you are legal to drink, its usually 1 -4 glugs. Have fun! Be responsible, don't drink and drive. Have a DD.

Answer 10

1 1/4 oz. if it's a straight shot. Mixed shots of course have a bit more.
