My best friend bought me these glasses for Christmas because she said I needed some COOL glasses.  Well, these definitely are COOL, and after using them I can say they are perfect for shakes!

The Design
The glasses come in two sizes, 12oz and 20oz.  My friend bought me a set of 4 of the 20oz glasses.  Each set comes with 4 different colored glasses: Red, Orange, Blue and Green.  The color is striped along the bottom half of the glass giving you just enough color to remember which glass is yours when you are using it.  The top half is thin clear glass while the bottom half is a thicker, heavier glass.  This means the glass is very stable and there's no worry of it tipping over.

Using the Glasses
I brought these glasses out for my Birthday celebration because we wanted Strawberry Shakes.  These glasses ended up working perfectly for that!  Due to the large opening on the top of the glass, I could pour the shakes from my blender with ease and NO spilling!  Imagine that!  You could see the shake clearly and it looked yummy.  Since they are so large, you can fit quite a bit of shake into each glass.  These are definitely great glasses for things like this!  Drinking out of them was just as easy as any other glass.

Time to clean!
These glasses are hand-wash only which is kind of a downside, however it turned out to be easy to clean them.  I could actually get my hands inside them!  That's unusual for a glass so with these it was nice to be able to clean all the way down to the very bottom with my sponge.  I then set them to dry and they came out looking just as cool as when I got them.

The End!!
I'm saving these glasses next to my blender to be used specifically for shakes.  I'm not planning to use them for everyday drinks because I don't want to chance ruining them or breaking them.  If you and your family enjoy ice cream shakes, smoothies, or any other fancy drinks, buy a set of these today at Bed Bath and Beyond for only $10!  Enjoy!!

I can't find this on the Bed bath and beyond website anymore, but I think that it said it on the website. When I get home, I'll see if I still have the box for them. I usually handwash stuff like this anyway b/c I'm always worried the heat will ruin the pattern.

I just bought 4 of these at Marshalls. I dont see hand wash only on the box. How did you know they aren't machine washable?
I don't like to hand wash anything!

They are awesome. Here's the recipe: Vanilla ice cream, Private Selection Strawberry puree (which i will be reviewing soon!!), an optional banana, and enough Dr. Pepper to make it liquidy. The Dr. Pepper can be replaced with Amaretto if you are looking for a drink! Enjoy!!
