Verve Culture Cantaritos Clay Cups

Cantaritos de barro cups are traditional small clay cups that are staples of street fairs in the Mexican state of Jalisco. Cantaritos cups are humble, with a lot of character and history. Their clay material is perfect for maintaining a cocktail’s cold temperature, and the handmade nature evoked memories of generations worth of fun.

Please note: the clay cantaritos cups are traditionally meant to be refilled during the night at street fairs, but are usually treated as disposable. We have finished our cups with a special glaze to reinforce them. With proper care the cups could for some time, but are easily breakable and not dishwasher-safe.  Each one is handmade on a manual turntable and size may vary. Approximate capacity is 16 oz.
