Know before you buy
Solid pewter is an excellent thermal conductor. When filled with crushed ice, the cup frosts over quickly, keeping your drink exceptionally cold and refreshing while providing a classic tactile experience.
Hand wash the cup with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the polished finish.
While designed for the traditional Julep, its 9-ounce capacity makes it a versatile vessel for any iced cocktail, whiskey neat, or even as a sophisticated water glass.
Pewter is a durable metal that develops a soft, muted patina with age. If you prefer the high-shine look, you can periodically use a gentle pewter polish to restore its original luster.
Yes, the solid pewter construction provides a substantial, weighted feel that ensures the cup remains stable on your bar top or table, even when filled with ice.
