Ay Dios Mio!
Ay Dios Mio!
The Vaso veladora shot glass is a true Mexican classic. Originally these glass cups were used in Catholic churches to contain prayer candles. You would drop a few coins in the church’s donation box and then light a candle to say a prayer for someone. Each vaso has a cruxifix imprinted on its base to remind you of its purpose.
Somewhere along the line, it was decided to use the container to drink mezcal and a whole new category was born. Today you find them both in churches and bars.
We love them for a few reasons: they are extremely utilitarian, easy to transport and have a fantastic story. PRAYER HANDS!
