My kitchen cabinets house an interesting array of cups and cup-like objects in a variety of materials, thicknesses, and shapes. I am comfortable using any of them—or a jam jar, for that matter—for water, cocktails, wine, smoothies, hot tea, or as a paintbrush-rinsing station while I'm doing crafts. To me, an everyday drinking glass must be that versatile, because I am just one human woman. I cannot own 10 sets of cups, each specifically designed to heighten the experience of putting one particular liquid into my mouth. What I need from my drinking glass collection is, at the most basic level, no leaks. If I can also get utility, pleasure, value, and a tiny bit of style out of it, all the better. Of course, looking for the best all-purpose drinking glasses online leaves a lot of room for personal preference and self-expression. Depending on your habits, aesthetics, and storage space constraints, your perfect drinking glass will vary. Scroll on for a few of our favorite options. If you're into true neutral: The bodega glass is, in many ways, the quintessential, classic drinking glass—one that gets the job done but doesn't insert itself too loudly into the experience. These manage to be totally plain and clean-lined but still a little interesting, with a mid-weight base and slightly sloped, stackable shape. If you're going for a vibe: These Bormioli Rocco glasses are the best everyday drinking glasses that offer a bit of a personality—a chic, sidewalk cafe in Europe kind of vibe. They're stackable, made of thick tempered glass for durability, and they're great for hot and cold beverages alike, so you can use them for your morning latte and evening spritz. If you want color: Okay, but what if you've never done minimalism and you don't intend to start now? These LSA gem tumblers pack a visual punch without tipping over into gaudy, which is a tough line to walk. Go for pinks and purples with the "violet" collection, greeny-blues in "jade," or oranges in "amber"—all are shiny, multifaceted, and a little vintage-feeling.
