Martini Glasses
Whether you like your martinis dirty—try Alex Guarnaschelli’s Seriously Dirty Martinis—more classic, or flavored with lemon and basil, serve them in these sleek martini glasses. You can pick them up in a set of eight (pictured) at Crate & Barrel for under $40, or grab individual glasses for $4.95 each. If you’d prefer more of a coupe-like shape, this glass also received near-perfect ratings.
