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.

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

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
>Fill glass with ice
>Fill glass with water to the level you wish your drink to reach
>Drain that water and measure it
>Congratulations, you now know how much of your alcoholic beverage to mix if you want to fill your glass to the desired level

look at that pic and compare to the bucket you're using
>>7207625
A classic old fashioned glass is 6 oz. A double is 12.

find a decent looking mustard glass and those are about the right size theyre saying
