Licor 43 Mini Beer Mugs Review (Updated | Apr 23rd)

If you’re looking to recreate that classic Spanish ‘Mini Beer’ look with Licor 43 and heavy cream, this 6-piece glass set from ZYFLSIYU is a solid starting point. These are genuine high-quality glass, not cheap plastic, which gives them a nice weight when you’re clinking glasses with friends.

At 2 ounces, they are the perfect size for a standard shot with a little room for that foamy ‘head’ on top. What I really appreciate is that they are dishwasher safe, so you don’t have to spend your morning scrubbing sticky liqueur out of tiny handles.

They feel sturdy enough for a rowdy house party, and the non-slip handle actually makes them quite easy to grab. The only real bummer is that the set only comes with six mugs.

If you’re hosting more than a small group, you’ll find yourself running to the kitchen to wash them constantly or needing to buy multiple packs to keep the drinks flowing.

For those who take their hosting duties seriously, this 12-piece bulk set by Lyksgir is the way to go. You get double the glasses compared to most sets, which is a lifesaver when you have a full house.

These mugs feature a thickened base and walls, making them feel incredibly ‘heavy-duty’ and resistant to those accidental table bumps. The design is classic and clean, and the thickened handle is surprisingly comfortable to hold, even for people with larger hands.

They do a great job of keeping your shot chilled since the handle prevents your hand from warming up the glass. However, you need to be careful with maintenance; unlike some other glass options, these cannot go in the dishwasher or microwave.

If you put them through a heat cycle, you risk them cracking or deforming, so you’ll be stuck doing hand-washing only after your event, which can be a chore with a dozen tiny mugs.

If you are looking to master the art of the ‘Mini Beer’ shot, this 6-pack from ZZYFGH is exactly what you need. These are true 1.8 oz shot glasses, which is the perfect size for layering Licor 43 with a splash of heavy cream to get that classic foaming head look.

I love how they feel in your hand; the thick handle isn’t just for show, it actually makes clinking glasses with friends a lot more satisfying without worrying about chips. The heavy base keeps them from tipping over on a crowded coffee table, and the glass is surprisingly clear for the price point.

These are ideal for someone hosting a small get-together who wants that authentic tavern vibe in miniature form. One thing to keep in mind, though, is that the mouth is quite narrow, so if you are trying to hand-wash them quickly, you might find it tricky to get a sponge all the way to the bottom.

Now, if you want something that feels a bit more substantial than a standard shot, these 5 oz mini mugs by ZYFLSIYU are a great middle-ground. They are significantly larger than your average shot glass, making them perfect for whiskey flights, espresso shots, or even mini desserts like chocolate mousse.

Because you get 10 pieces in a set, it’s a much better value for hosting larger family gatherings or backyard tastings. The glass is dishwasher safe, which is a huge relief after a long night of entertaining.

They have a nice, smooth finish and a non-slip handle that feels sturdy enough for heavy use. However, you should be aware that these are too large for a traditional ‘mini beer’ shot; if you fill these with Licor 43, you’ll be serving a very stiff drink, so they are better suited for mixed tasters or small pours of actual beer.

If you are looking to master the art of the ‘Mini Beer’ shot, these Futtumy 2 OZ glasses are exactly what you need. I love that they have a slightly larger 2-ounce capacity, which gives you plenty of room for that thick layer of heavy cream on top of your Licor 43 without it spilling over the sides.

The thick glass walls and heavy base make them feel surprisingly sturdy in your hand, so you don’t have to worry about them shattering during a rowdy toast. They have that classic dimpled mug aesthetic that looks great in photos and really adds to the party atmosphere.

They are perfect for anyone hosting a larger gathering who wants a glass that feels premium rather than cheap plastic. However, you do have to be careful with cleanup; these are not dishwasher safe, so you’ll be spending some time at the sink hand-washing each one after the party ends.

For those who prefer a more traditional, concentrated shot, this 10-pack from ZZYFGH is a fantastic value. These are smaller 1.0-ounce glasses, which I think is great if you’re serving a lot of people and want to stretch your bottle of Licor 43 a bit further.

The transparent glass is crystal clear, showing off the vibrant gold color of the liqueur perfectly. They feature a convenient side handle that makes clinking glasses easy and prevents your fingers from warming up the chilled drink.

Because you get ten in a pack, it’s a solid choice for weddings or formal dinners where you need a consistent look across the table. One thing to keep in mind, though, is that the 1-ounce limit is very tight; if you like a lot of cream on your mini beer shots, you might find these a bit too small to get the ratio just right without making a mess.

If you are hosting a big bash and don’t want to worry about glass shattering on your patio, these ZZYFGH plastic mini mugs are a lifesaver. I grabbed these for a backyard BBQ, and they are perfect for serving up those iconic Licor 43 mini beers with a splash of heavy cream on top.

Because they are made of lightweight plastic, you can hand them out to a crowd without stressing over broken shards. They have a surprisingly thick base that keeps them upright even when the table gets a little rowdy, and the integrated handle makes them easy to carry around.

They come in a set of 12, which is a solid start for a small gathering. However, you should know that while they are reusable, they don’t have that premium ‘clink’ of real glass.

The 2-ounce capacity is the sweet spot for a shot, but the plastic can show scuffs and scratches after just a few washes, so they might not stay crystal clear forever.

For those who take their home bar setup a bit more seriously, this 24-piece glass set from JUXINGDAZYF is the way to go. There is something so much more satisfying about drinking a mini beer shot out of lead-free glass; it just feels more authentic.

These mugs have that classic heavy base and a sturdy handle that makes them look like shrunken versions of traditional steins. Since you get 24 mugs in a pack, you’ll have plenty for a large wedding toast or a busy holiday party.

They are dishwasher safe, which is a huge win when you’re cleaning up after a long night of hosting. They work beautifully for everything from espresso to tequila, but they are specifically great for layered liqueur shots.

The only real downside is their fragile nature; because they are real glass, a drop on a hard floor means it’s game over for that mug. They require much more careful storage than the plastic alternatives.

If you are hosting a large party and want to serve those famous Licor 43 mini beers without the constant anxiety of glass shattering on your patio, these 24 PCS plastic mugs are a lifesaver. I love that they hold 2 ounces, which is the perfect volume to get that distinct ‘beer’ look with a thick heavy cream head on top of the liqueur.

They feel surprisingly sturdy for being lightweight plastic, and the comfortable handle makes them feel like legitimate tiny steins rather than cheap disposable cups. These are perfect for rowdy bachelor parties or poolside gatherings where glass is a no-go.

You can just rinse them out and use them again, though you should know they are hand wash only; if you try to get lazy and toss them in a high-heat dishwasher, you’re going to end up with a warped mess. They are a great middle ground between flimsy solo cups and expensive glassware.

For those who prefer a smaller, more manageable sip, these 1 oz mini mugs are a fantastic choice for tasting flights or dessert shots. What really stands out here is the heavy base design, which prevents them from tipping over easily when you’re setting them down on a crowded bar top.

Unlike many other plastic options, these are actually dishwasher safe, which is a massive win when you have 30 pieces to clean up after a long night of hosting. They have a very clear, glass-like appearance that looks great in photos, making them a hit for themed ‘Leprechaun’ shots or tiny espresso tastings.

However, keep in mind that 1 ounce is quite small; if you like a lot of cream on your mini beer shots, you might find these a bit cramped for space. They are best suited for someone who wants quantity and easy cleanup over large serving sizes.
