Drinkware question for you all: What size are your coupe glasses? I just bought a set of 5.5 oz. glasses to replace my 7 oz. glasses, most of which broke. My drinks served up are the classic size, which means 3 to 3.5 oz. of liquid before dilution and 4 oz. +/- 0.25 oz. after dilution. This fills the 5.5 oz. coupe glass almost to the rim. I'm wondering if this makes the drink more prone to spillage while drinking. Or maybe I'm overthinking this.

I think my martini glasses are 5.5 oz and that's what I use for all my up drinks. Dont have a spillage problem until I'm a few in. At that point it's not the glass's fault.

Postscript: I was wrong. I just measured and the martini glasses are 7 oz.

My go to glass for martinis are Rona coupes, about five years old, part of their food service line. Eight ounces. Four ounces of spirit, .5 of vermouth, two large olives and they get filled nicely with the melt.
