Weird though it might sound, it’s sometimes served in pints in UK pubs and restaurants (in a pint glass, with a long fork and toast points). One doesn’t fill much of a gap, so maybe two pints?

the intricately crafted glass jars, which sometimes featured sea horses or ship’s wheels and begged to be repurposed (Antonio says people often used the jars to drink orange juice)
