Curious about measures and how these relate to suggested barware. For example, a Bay Breeze, quite delicious I might add, has the following ingredients and quantities:
1 2⁄3 fl oz Ketel One Vodka
2 2⁄3 fl oz Cranberry juice (sweetened)
1 1⁄6 fl oz Pineapple juice
Tallying these one finds a total of 5 1/2 fl oz. Placing these in a Collins glass, typically measuring 10 to 14 fl oz produces a drink far less than a full glass.
Is ice, therefore, to total from 4.5 to 8.5 fl oz?
