Fun and funky glassware is all the rage these days. Colorful coupes and pleasantly textured cocktail glasses have graced all our best tables lately, adding pizzazz to any and all occasions. It’s our new ultimate entertaining go-to. With summer in full force, pretty drinkware seems especially appropriate to suit the sunshine-y weather. It’s just the thing to brighten up an already vibrant outdoor dinner party or set the mood for lawn lounging. However, not all of our dining room favorites translate well to the great outdoors.

Summertime sipping outside requires a sturdier glass. These lively cups are as hardy as they are pretty, adapting our favorite entertaining trend for summer. Slight spills may still occur, but at least you won’t have to worry about the hazards of broken glass—or mourn the finishing piece in your matching set of glasses—should things go awry. Fill one of these shatterproof glasses with your favorite refreshing beverage and sip away.
