Hi everyone,

I was lucky enough to receive a set of TV Mai Tai glasses for Christmas. Awesome. I wanted them but didn't really want to spend the $$ so it was a great gift.

As many people probably know, the glasses are a little bit too wide to fit in a standard Boston shaker tin.

TV sells a large tin for $75 but I'm not keen on spending that $$$.

I tried a malt cup (stainless steel cup for a milkshake machine). It is wide enough but the indented lines on the side are too close to the top of the cup and they prevent a tight seal with the TV glass.

My Boston shaker tin is 3 5/8" wide. It looks like I need something between 3 3/4" and 4" across.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

I can continue to build my drink in my shaker and pint glass and then pout it into the TV glass but I like the idea of using the TV glass in my shaker - as intended.

Thanks!
