A tumbler is a flat-bottomed beverage container usually made of plastic or glass.
Theories vary as to the etymology of the word tumbler. One such theory is that the glasses originally had a pointed or convex base and could not be set down without spilling. Another is that they had weighted bottoms which caused them to right themselves if knocked over.[1]
- Collins glass, for a tall mixed drink[2]
- Dizzy Cocktail glass, a glass with a wide, shallow bowl, comparable to a normal Cocktail glass but without the stem
- Highball glass, for mixed drinks[3]
- Iced tea glass
- Juice glass, for fruit juices and vegetable juices.
- Old Fashioned glass, traditionally, for a simple cocktail or liquor "on the rocks". Contemporary American "rocks" glasses may be much larger, and used for a variety of beverages over ice
