A highball glass.

A highball glass is a glass tumbler that can contain 240 to 350 millilitres (8.4 to 12.3 imp fl oz; 8.1 to 11.8 US fl oz).[1][2] It is used to serve highball cocktails and other mixed drinks.

A highball glass is taller than an Old Fashioned glass, and shorter and wider than a Collins glass.
