    I recommend using kitchen scales to prepare a cocktail. Into a cone-shaped glass (it is called "Rocks") add ice. The name of the glass "Rocks" came from the English "rocks" - rocks. This is due to the fact that in the Wild West in the XIX century there were no ice molds yet. And the bartenders in the saloons were manually chipping ice to serve drinks from a huge block of ice. Thus, the sharp pieces of ice in the glass reminded the cowboys of rocks.
