Aperol & Limoncello Spritz

A large wine glass or Copa de Balon goblet (12–17 oz). The wide bowl releases the bittersweet Aperol aromatics, and the size accommodates ice, prosecco, soda and the signature orange slice without crowding. Avoid narrow flutes – they trap the aroma and don't fit the garnish properly.

The same 14–17 oz wine glass or balloon used for Aperol Spritz. Hugo Spritz needs room for ice, elderflower syrup, prosecco, soda and fresh mint. The mint specifically requires space to release its aromatics, so a wider bowl matters more for Hugo than for Aperol.

The Limoncello Spritz works in the same balloon goblet as Aperol or Hugo Spritz, often with a citrus-rim treatment. The Copa de Balon is preferred because the wide bowl shows off the cloudy yellow color and the lemon peel garnish. Our Crystal Aperol Spritz Cocktail Glasses work for all three spritz styles.

Yes – all three use the same 12–17 oz balloon goblet. Our Crystal Aperol Spritz, Venice Goblet and Copa de Balon Gin Goblet all work for any spritz variation, plus Bellini, Negroni Sbagliato and even cold-brewed iced tea cocktails.

Glassique Cadeau hand-blown lead-free crystal glasses are dishwasher safe on a gentle, low-temperature cycle – but hand washing is the safer long-term choice for keeping rims smooth and crystal clarity intact. Use warm water and a mild detergent, avoid extreme temperature changes (never put a frozen glass into a hot wash), and air-dry on a soft cloth. For sets with gold rims, painted detail, or hand-cut crystal – the Octagonal Gold-Rim Coupes and the Art Deco Speakeasy Lowballs in particular – hand wash only to preserve the finish.

Yes – lead-free crystal is the modern standard for premium glassware and is safe for everyday use with any beverage. Traditional lead crystal contained up to 32% lead oxide, which improved clarity and weight but could leach trace lead into spirits stored long-term in decanters. Lead-free crystal (sometimes called crystalline or potassium-zinc crystal) uses barium, zinc, or potassium oxides instead, delivering the same brilliance, weight, and ring without the safety concern. Every Glassique Cadeau glass is hand-blown from lead-free crystal and tested to comply with FDA and EU food-contact standards.

Yes – every Glassique Cadeau set ships in our signature gift box, ready to wow at unboxing. The box is structured, branded, and printed with the cocktail recipe for the glass inside (an Old Fashioned recipe with our lowballs, a French 75 with our coupes, a classic Martini with our martini glasses). No additional gift wrap needed. For weddings, housewarmings, engagements, anniversaries, and birthdays, every set is already presentation-ready straight out of the shipping carton.

Yes – Glassique Cadeau offers free standard shipping on every U.S. order over $89. Most sets ship the next business day from our warehouse, with delivery in 3-6 business days. Every shipment is packed with reinforced padding and tracked end-to-end, and any breakage in transit is replaced free of charge. Expedited shipping is available at checkout for time-sensitive gifts (weddings, milestone anniversaries, holiday deadlines).

Hand wash Glassique Cadeau crystal glasses in warm water with a mild detergent, then air-dry upside down on a soft cloth or stemware rack to prevent water spots. Avoid extreme temperature changes – never pour ice into a hot-from-the-dishwasher glass or hot liquid into a refrigerated one, since thermal shock can crack crystal. Store stemware upright (not on the rim) to protect the lip. For gold-rimmed, painted, or hand-cut sets, hand wash only. Lead-free crystal is durable, but it rewards gentle handling – every glass is hand-blown, so each one is unique.
