which side is which jigger
A jigger of alcohol refers to 1.5 ounces (approximately 44 ml) and the bar jigger was named after the measurement. The standard jigger measures 1.5 ounces on one side of the hourglass and 1 ounce on the other side. Now, however, you can buy jiggers in a variety of different measuring amounts â from 0.5oz / 1oz all the way to 1.5oz / 2oz and also in metric sizes (that means, like, millilitres).
