So this is a picture of an old fashioned in an old fashioned glass. But whenever I search for recipes and make them, i end up with only a tiny amount of drink. Even if I add a bunch of ice it still only fills about half the glass.

So what gives? This happens with practically every cocktail I try to make

Uh, make a double? Are you retarded by chance?
>>
>>7207558

But I ordered one at a bar once and didn't ask for a double and it was a full glass too. Is that normal?

glasses have gotten bigger. tge classic rocks glass was 5-6 oz, now its 8-10. same with the highball and martini glasses, look at old movies then compare to todays monstrosities

It was a technically a double. No one orders double old fashioned, you just get a rocks glass full of the drink.

>>7207571
basically this, you are probably using your moms retard sized double old fashioned glasses
>>
>>7207596

I bought them myself. Can you link me to properly sized old fashioned glasses?
>>
>>7207609
there are regular(6-10oz) and double(12-16oz) old fashioned glasses, they come in a variety of sizes. also have you tried putting more ice in your glass?
>>
>>7207619

Mine are definitely not more than 10oz. I just checked

A classic old fashioned glass is 6 oz. A double is 12.
