ounce in England is not the same as a U.S. ounce, but measurements ARE for the most part consistent within geographical boundaries. There’s a big difference between an ounce and a half, and two ounces. 33% is pretty significant when you start mixing drinks with multiple shots of various liquors.

Does anyone have a reference for shots in New Zealand? From my experience, 15 mL is a single and 30 mL a double (so probably one of the stingiest servings of alcohol), but I don't have a reference for it.

Could we please have a photograph (or illustration) of a "rounded shot glass"? Or, failing that, a more evocative description. I am struggling to understand what the current description means: "

In Korea, they have "soju glasses", which look pretty much exactly like schnaps glasses, and which hold pretty much the same amount, i.e., 2oz. If no one objects, I will add it to the list.
