how many ounces are in a shot glass? what about those taller ones?

 

[pulse8]

There are only two kinds of shot glasses.

A single = 1 oz.

A double = 2 oz.

 

[minendo]

there is also the rare 3 oz shot glass. more of a joke than anything else

 

[StageLeft]

You can get 8 oz ones too!

Also there are bar shoot glasses, (the kind bartenders use) that are 1 and 1/4OZ on one side and the other side is 3/4oz. They are used to pour/mix drinks...

A shot glass is 1oz. There is also a 2oz. one. Those are your standards.

Here's a list of standard bar measurements. According to this source, "A "shotglass" is usually 1.5 ounces, but sometimes 2 ounces with a measuring line at 1.5 ounces. You can also buy (in US) "short shot" glasses or "pony shots" which are 1 ounce."

Webtender.com is a really cool site in general. All you hafta do is tell the Webtender what you have in your refrigerator or bar, and it'll generate a list of all the drinks you can make!

Bars I have owned set their own standards for how much to include in a drink
You can buy automatic pourers that go up from like 3/4 ounce up
In Fl there was no regulation on how much a shot should be
I imagine there are states where the shot size is regulated

A standard shot glass is 1.5 ounces. A "shooter" or jigger, the tall skinny one, is 2 ounces.
